Psychometric Properties of the Stress Mindset Measure in an Iranian Sample

This research aimed to study the psychometric properties of the Stress Mindset Measure (SMM) in a non-clinical sample of the Iranian population. The Stress Mindset Measure is a psychometrically robust scale consisting of 8 items to assess whether individuals hold a stress-is-enhancing or stress-is-debilitating mindset. To evaluate the psychometric properties of this measure, we recruited 161 men and 239 women from the University of Tehran community.
