Abstract
Several studies have reported that the COVID-19 pandemic has considerably influenced the general public's psychological, emotional, and social well-being. Given the growing concern regarding the psychological consequences of COVID-19, it is critical to objectively evaluate these psychological impacts using a valid and reliable tool specifically designed for assessing COVID-19's effects. The study’s main objective was to determine the construct validity of the COVID Stress Scales (CSS) as a tool to measure the stress level caused by COVID-19 in adult Filipino individuals. Contextual/cultural adaptation was carried out to ensure that CSS was appropriate for Filipino culture. In adapting the CSS, the process closely followed current best practices in developing and validating scale. Items were drawn from extant literature about the sources of COVID stress among Filipinos. Nine newly constructed items based on local COVID studies were included in the scale. The nine new items are: (1) I am worried that my money is not enough to buy the family's basic needs.; (2) I am worried that I might lose my job due to the pandemic.; (3) I am worried that my salary is not enough to pay monthly bills.; (4) I am worried about dining in a restaurant being run or managed by foreigner/s.; (5) I am worried that I might catch the virus when going to public places.; (6) I am worried that I might catch the virus when riding public transportation.; (7) I am worried that my deliveries (from Grab, food Panda, Shopee, Lazada etc.) have been contaminated by deliverymen.; (8) Thoughts about people whom I know died because of COVID-19 are giving me unwanted fears about death.; and (9) Hearing news about people getting sick with COVID-19 prevents me from concentrating on my work /responsibilities. The COVID Stress Scales (CSS) were also assessed for content validity following Lynn Method Approach. The Lynn Method of content validity was used to quantify the indicators of content clarity and content relevance of the CSS; that is, the items are designed to capture the relevant experience of the demographic being studied. Some items were revised in terms of the organization of the sentence, clarity, and suitability of the construct of COVID stress in the Filipino context. After assessing the content validity of the items, an online cognitive interview was also conducted to ensure appropriate language and concepts. After the interview, the CSS was pre-tested on 30 respondents and subjected to reliability testing,
