The aim of this study was to explore the reliability and validity of a modified version of the Separation Anxiety Symptom Inventory suitable for children (SASI-C) (SASI; Silove, Manicavasagar, O’Connell, Blaszczynski, Wagner, & Henry, 1993). The SASI-C was administered to a community sample of 289 Italian children, aged 6-10 years. An exploratory factor analysis yielded two interpretable factors. The internal consistency of the SASI-C and the two factors were adequate. Correlation between the SASI-C and the Italian Fear Survey Schedule for Children (FSSC-IT, Di Riso, Salcuni, Chessa, & Lis, 2010) was calculated to assess validity.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to explore the reliability and validity of a modified version of the Separation Anxiety Symptom Inventory suitable for children (SASI-C) (SASI; Silove, Manicavasagar, O’Connell, Blaszczynski, Wagner, & Henry, 1993). The SASI-C was administered to a community sample of 289 Italian children, aged 6-10 years. An exploratory factor analysis yielded two interpretable factors. The internal consistency of the SASI-C and the two factors were adequate. Correlation between the SASI-C and the Italian Fear Survey Schedule for Children (FSSC-IT, Di Riso, Salcuni, Chessa, & Lis, 2010) was calculated to assess validity.
