This work provides information on the factorial structure, reliability and validity of the PANAS scales (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule) when used with the elderly. The participants in this study were 436 senior citizens aged 65 or older (age range: 65-91). Results confirm the original 2-factor structure of the questionnaire. Furthermore, they corroborate good reliability (Cronbach's alpha) and validity, both convergent and discriminant, on account of its relationships with state anxiety and pain intensity.Downloads
