PANAS

The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) is a self-report instrument consisting of two 10-item mood scales to measure positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA). Positive and negative affect are considered as indicators of mental health and psychological wellbeing1).
The 10-item PANAS short form was used in follow-up questionnaire 2B2)

Background

  • Positive affect items include: feeling alert, inspired, active, interested, excited, strong, enthusiastic, determined, proud, and attentive.
  • Negative affect items include: feeling irritable, ashamed, upset, nervous, guilty, scared, hostile, jittery, afraid, and distressed

Lifelines participants had to rate the extent to which they had experienced each item during the last four weeks on a 5-point Likert-type scale (not at all, a little, now and then, often or extremely).
Note that three additional affect items (angry, resigned, hopeful) were added in an additional questionnaire on the impact of earthquakes.

Validity

The validity of the PANAS is described in detail in the articles provided in the references3)4)5)6)7)
