Data for: Development and Validation of the Eco-Stress Scale: A Multidimensional Approach to Measure Environmental Stressors Across Contexts

EFA Dataset: This dataset contains anonymized responses from 462 participants used for the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) during the development of the Eco-Stress Scale. It includes responses to all 17 scale items and demographic variables including age and gender. The dataset can be used to replicate the EFA, examine the factor structure, or conduct secondary analyses on environmental stress constructs. All data are fully anonymized to protect participant confidentiality.; EFA Codebook: This codebook documents all variables included in the EFA dataset of the Eco-Stress Scale study, including variable names, labels, types, valid values, and missing value coding. It provides detailed information on the 17 scale items, subscales, and demographic variables (age, gender). The codebook is intended to help researchers understand the dataset, replicate the exploratory factor analysis, and conduct secondary analyses on environmental stress constructs. All information reflects fully anonymized participant data.; CFA Dataset: This dataset contains anonymized responses from 428 participants used for the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) during the validation of the Eco-Stress Scale. It includes responses to all 17 scale items and demographic variables including age, gender, education, marital status, profession, and city. The dataset can be used to replicate the CFA, assess model fit, or explore psychometric properties of the scale. All data are fully anonymized to ensure participant confidentiality.; CFA Codebook: This codebook documents all variables included in the CFA dataset of the Eco-Stress Scale study, including variable names, labels, types, valid values, and missing value coding. It provides detailed information on the 17 scale items, subscales, and demographic variables (age, gender, education, marital status, profession, city). The codebook is intended to help researchers understand the dataset, replicate the confirmatory factor analysis, assess model fit, and explore psychometric properties. All data are fully anonymized to protect participant confidentiality.; Scale Items & Scoring: This document contains all 17 items of the Eco-Stress Scale, including scoring and computation of subscale scores. The scale measures four dimensions of environmental stress: Built Environment Stress, Climate Change Stress, Natural Disasters Stress, and Environmental Damages Stress. The file is intended for use by researchers, educators, or students for measurement, replication studies, or educational purposes.
