Article Synopsis
- - The study addresses anxiety as a common yet often overlooked symptom in Parkinson’s disease, aiming to create a new scale specifically designed to measure the distinct experiences of anxiety in these patients.
- - Using data from a survey of 254 individuals with Parkinson's and anxiety, researchers developed both a comprehensive (CAPS-54) and a shortened version (CAPS-24) of the anxiety scale, assessing their reliability and validity through various analyses.
- - The results indicate that these new scales possess excellent reliability and validity, providing a valuable tool for both researchers and clinicians to better understand and assess anxiety in Parkinson’s disease, with a recommendation for further validation with separate samples.
