Abstract

The Persian version of DASS-21 showed good psychometric characteristics, and it was confirmed as a valid and reliable tool for evaluating depression, anxiety, and stress among Iranian nurses. However, further validation studies of the Persian DSASS-21 are needed among other healthcare professionals, including physicians, midwives, and allied health professionals.
