The purpose of this study is to present the Hindi translation and validation of the Impact of Event Scale-Revised and to evaluate psychometric qualities of this scale in a sample of regular Rajyoga meditators to examine the psychological impact of Coronavirus on them. The convenience sampling method was used to collect the data from 801 Rajyoga meditators through online survey. Data were analysed using SPSS 26.0. The Hindi version of IES-R demonstrated good internal consistency with the value of alpha coefficient being 0.91 for the scale and ranging between 0.81 to 0.83 for the subscales. The correlations between the subscales varied between 0.55 and 0.66. Principal components analysis using Varimax rotation was run with three-factor solution based on eigen value greater than one. This solution explained 54 percent of the total variance. It generated mainly two factors, an intrusion hyperarousal factor and an avoidance factor and third factor with one item only. Only 4.7 percent of the meditators rated the outbreak's psychological impact as moderate or severe. The mean score of IES-R was 10.01 (with an S.D. of 11.107). Significant positive correlations were found among IES-R scores and the presence of COVID symptoms. Thus, in clinical and research contexts, the scale appears to be a valid measure of post-trauma occurrences. The present study was conducted to generate a validated Hindi version of the IES-R that is easier and more compatible for use in the Indian population. |
