| Summary: | This study aims to identify the most contributed factors
in Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS) questionnaire
among children in Shelter Care Institutions in Terengganu
Malaysia. The sample consists of 234 respondents from six
institutions by using 21-items version of the DASS-21
questionnaire. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to
study the most essential contributed factor in the questionnaire.
The initial PCA show five variables factors out of 21-item as the
most significant for factors with a considerable eigen value > 1.
The result from factor loading after varimax rotation show that
VF1 has five variables, VF2 and VF3 has four variables, VF4 has
two variables while VF5 has three variables. We suggest that the
further study might be required to assess the status among
gender and level of academic. |
