摘要: In this article, we present the development and psychometric properties of Multidimensional Assessment COVID-19--Related Fears (MAC-RF). The MAC-RF is an eight-item, self-report scale that has been developed to assess clinically relevant domains fear during COVID-19 pandemic. based on a comprehensive theoretical model conceptualizing fears pandemics as resulting from interaction bodily, interpersonal, cognitive, behavioral experiences. was administered sample 623 Italian adults community aged between 18 76 years old (M= 35.67, SD= 12.93), along with measure current clinical symptoms. Item response theory analyses demonstrated each item provided sufficient information about underlying construct fear. statistical fit satisfactory. total scores correlated significantly positively psychopathology symptom domain scores. A ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curve analysis showed score sufficiently able identify cases high levels psychopathology, area under of.76. These findings suggest can be used pathological pandemics. English, Italian, French versions are annexed article for use by clinicians health services.
