Naaykens Japanese translation
of the DASS
This
translation was carried out by John Naaykens.
The Japanese
translation of the DASS was conducted using intra-rater
agreement among the following educational personnel: Niigata University Full
Professor of English (native Japanese speaker), Assistant Professor of English
at the Nagaoka National College of Technology (American), Niigata University
Lecturer in English (native Japanese speaker), and Niigata High School English
Teacher (native Japanese speaker). All raters were fully fluent in both English
and Japanese.
Scoring the
questionnaire: The items are in the
same order as the English DASS. The
English DASS scoring template will not match the layout of the Japanese
questionnaire, but it will indicate which items contribute to each scale.
