We constructed a test to assess stress in @entity1 and compared it with established measures of @entity308 , @entity148 , angel; disruptive behavior, and negative self-perception. A total of 181 @entity1 aged between 9 and 12 years were enrolled at various stages of the construction of a new short questionnaire; Stress in @entity1 ( @entity12958 ). Baseline data, completed questionnaires, salivary @entity701 (SC)five times during (1 day), and 24-h urinary @entity2661 were collected during an ordinary school week. The @entity12958 was validated using the Beck Youth Inventories of Emotional andnt (BYI). Associations with self-reported psychosomatic symptoms for urinary @entity2661 and @entity701 concentrations were assessed. Cronbach's 6 used in this study for the entire @entity12958 questionnaire is 0.86. Statistically significant associations were found between the @entity12958 Global Mean Score (GMS) and all of the five BYI subscales. Spearman's rho coefficient for the association of @entity12958 GMS with the first SC sample is 0.30 (p = 0.01). When stratified by sex, the magnitude of the association between SC and @entity12958 was higher in @entity1 , while there was no significant association among @entity1 . No significant associations with @entity2922 levels were observed for self-rating scores from the @entity12958 or BYI. This study demonstrated that the @entity12958 questionnaire has satisfactory reliability and its ratings are associated with those generated by the BYI. The @entity12958 GMS was associated with higher morning saliva @entity701 in @entity1 . Our results demonstrate that it is possible to screen for stress in schoolchildren using an easily administered self-rating instrument.
