Abstract	To develop the School Anxiety Inventory--College Version (SAI-CV)--a measure of school anxiety specifically tailored for college students--and provide initial reliability and validity evidence. College undergraduates (N = 1004) from a large Midwestern University. Participants completed the SAI-CV as well as measures of test anxiety, fear of negative evaluation, and college self-efficacy. SAI-CV total and subscale scores indicated excellent internal consistency reliability (Cronbach's [alpha] = 0.94-0.97). Confirmatory factor analysis supported a three-factor model for each domain: school situations (academic failure, social evaluation, peer aggression) and anxiety symptoms (cognitive, behavioral, physiological). The SAI-CV also exhibited strong evidence of convergent and discriminant validity. Findings support strong initial psychometric evidence of the SAI-CV. Given that school anxiety is a?prevalent and debilitating health concern among college students, future efforts should establish the clinical utility of the SAI-CV and development of targeted interventions.
