Abstract

To get a culturally validated version of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS; Cohen et al., 1983), the authors translated the PSS into Korean and conducted exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. In study 1, exploratory factor analyses with a sample of college students (N = 312) revealed that the two-factor structure (negative perception and positive perception) best fit the data. Also, positive correlations were found between the PSS subscales and depression, anxiety, and negative affect, and negative correlations were found between the PSS scales and positive affect. In study 2, confirmatory factor analyses with a nation-wide sample of college students (N = 368) revealed that the two-factor solution was adequate. The negative perception subscale correlated more with depression, anxiety, and negative affect, while the positive perception scale correlated with positive affect. The two sub-scales negatively correlated with social support. Implications for usage of the PSS are discussed.
