Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS) is a widely used measure that captures somatic symptoms of coronavirus-related anxiety. In a large-scale collaboration spanning 60 countries (Ntotal = 21,513), we examined the CAS's measurement invariance and assessed the convergent validity of CAS scores in relation to the fear of COVID-19 (FCV-19S) and the satisfaction with life (SWLS-3) scales. We utilized both conventional exact invariance tests and alignment procedures, with results revealing that the single-factor model fit the data well in almost all countries. Partial scalar invariance was supported in a subset of 56 countries. To ensure the robustness of results, given the unbalanced samples, we employed resampling techniques both with and without replacement and found the results were more stable in larger samples. The alignment procedure demonstrated a high degree of measurement invariance with 9% of the parameters exhibiting noninvariance. We also conducted simulations of alignment using the parameters estimated in the current model. Findings demonstrated reliability of the means but indicated challenges in estimating the latent variances. Strong positive correlations between CAS and FCV-19S estimated with all three different approaches were found in most countries. Correlations of CAS and SWLS-3 were weak and negative but significantly differed from zero in several countries. Overall, the study provided support for the measurement invariance of the CAS and offered evidence of its convergent validity while also highlighting issues with variance estimation.

冠状病毒焦虑量表：跨国测量不变性和收敛有效性证据。

冠状病毒焦虑量表（CAS）是一种广泛使用的测量方法，可捕捉与冠状病毒相关的焦虑的躯体症状。在跨越 60 个国家/地区的大规模合作中（Ntotal = 21,513），我们检查了 CAS 的测量不变性，并评估了 CAS 评分与对 COVID-19 的恐惧 (FCV-19S) 和生活满意度 (SWLS) 相关的收敛有效性。 -3）秤。我们利用了传统的精确不变性检验和对齐程序，结果表明单因素模型与几乎所有国家的数据拟合良好。部分标量不变性在 56 个国家/地区的子集中得到支持。为了确保结果的稳健性，考虑到样本不平衡，我们采用了有放回和无放回的重采样技术，发现较大样本的结果更稳定。对齐过程证明了高度的测量不变性，9% 的参数表现出非不变性。我们还使用当前模型中估计的参数进行了对齐模拟。研究结果证明了方法的可靠性，但也表明了估计潜在方差的挑战。在大多数国家，使用所有三种不同方法估计的 CAS 和 FCV-19S 之间都存在很强的正相关性。 CAS 和 SWLS-3 的相关性较弱且呈负相关，但在一些国家中与零存在显着差异。总体而言，该研究为 CAS 的测量不变性提供了支持，并提供了其收敛有效性的证据，同时也强调了方差估计的问题。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2024 APA，保留所有权利）。
