SANB-5
Skala Angst vor negativer Bewertung-5
Short abstract
The SANB-5 is the German adaptation of the Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (Watson & Friend, 1969) and measures the dispositional fear of negative evaluation (evaluation anxiety). Its main areas of application are in personality psychological, social psychological or clinical-psychological research. The questionnaire consists of five items. Reliability: Depending on the sample, the internal consistency varies between Cronbach's Alpha = .84 and Alpha = .94. Validity: The validation studies have shown that SANB-5 is factorially valid. The single-factor model could be proven by different samples. Furthermore, the SANB-5 correlates almost perfectly with the original SANB. With the SANB-5, people with a diagnosis of social phobia can be differentiated from individuals without such a diagnosis. Finally, the convergent and discriminant validity could be verified on the basis of various samples. Overall, the SANB-5 showed a pattern of convergent and discriminant correlations with measures of anxiety and depression as well as the factors of the five-factor model of personality, in line with expectations.
