Sažetak
Background: Women diagnosed with infertility and receiving infertility treatment reported high levels of depressive symptoms,
anxiety and distress. Infertile women should first be screened for psychosocial risks. Psychosocial care interventions should be
planned according to their needs. The aim of this methodologically designed study was to test the validity and reliability of the
Screening Tool on Distress in Fertility Treatment's (SCREENIVF)Turkish verzion in infertile women.
Subjects and methods: The present study included 323 women diagnosed with nulliparous and undergoing fertility treatment.
Women filled in the descriptive characteristics questionnaire, The Copenhagen Multi Centre Psyghosocial Infertility-Fertility
Problem Stress Scale (COMPI-FPSS) and the SCREENIVF.
Results: To examine the contribution of the items to the scale, six items with an insufficient contribution to the scale were
removed from the scale as a result of the item-total score correlation values (Corrected item-total correlation <0.25). The item-total
score correlation coefficients and subscale-total score correlation coefficients obtained for each subscale ranged from 0.31 to 0.98.
According to the regression equation formed in line with the multivariate linear regression model that will model the linear
relationship between COMPI-FPSS, which is a scale equivalent to the subscale of the SCREENIVF, the total scores of the subscale
were statistically significant predictors of the scores obtained from COMPI-FPSS, and (F=161.281, p<0.001) multiple explanatory
coefficients were 77.2%. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.77 and accepted to be reliable. 16% of the women participating in this
study were above the cut-off scores concerning anxiety and depression, 13.9% acceptance, 8.2% hopelessness and 2% social
support. The scale consisted of five subscales and 28 items.
Conclusion: The findings indicate that the Turkish version of SCREENIVF is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be
used in the routine assessment regarding psychosocial aspects in the infertility treatment process.
