Article Abstract:

A study administered the Chinese version of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (C-STAI) to 2,150 Chinese secondary school students and compared the results to those of other psychological tests. Results indicated a strong correlation between A-State and A-Trait measures and between both scales and other measures of psychological well-being. The two scales correlated differently with the other findings, but results generally supported the validity of the C-STAI.
