Background: Psychiatric manifestations of individuals impacted by the coronavirus pandemic have not been sufficiently investigated. It is very important to find a short valid and reliable scale for particularly assessing the anxiety manifestations during coronavirus disease -2019 (COVID-19) pandemic which is suitable in our culture leading to early intervention and management. Objectives: The current study aimed to validate the Arabic version of corona virus anxiety scale (CAS) and assess its reliability and translation into Arabic. Patients and Methods: CAS has been translated into Arabic. Methodological design was used to investigate content validity index (CVI) reported by eleven expert jurors. The Arabic version was distributed among 700 participants who completed the scale. Intra class correlation coefficient (inter-rater and intra-rater agreement) and Cronbach's α reliability coefficients were addressed to investigate reliability. Results: The CVI Item for relevance ranged from 0.90 to 1.0 and for clarity from 0.71 to 1.0. All inter-rater and intra-rater correlation coefficients are positive and significant and ranges from 0.78 to 0.92 for inter-rater and from 0.88 to 0.96 for intra-rater. The inter-rater and intra-rater correlation coefficients of the total score were 0.83 and 0.92, respectively. The total Cronbach's α of the total scale was 0.92. Conclusion: Corona virus anxiety scale (CAS) Arabic version based on the results is valid, reliable, stable, and its translation is convenient to the culture. It can be used for screening of anxiety manifestations concomitant with Covid 19 pandemic.
