This study examines the psychometric properties of the Illness Attitude Toward COVID-19 Scale (IATCS). The IATCS was tested on a sample of individuals who were living in Kuwait during the COVID-19 pandemic (n = 1413). The reliability and validity of the scale were examined to assess the scale's internal consistency reliability, criterion validity, and factorial validity. The results of the study showed alpha values that were satisfactory for the overall scale and for five subscales. The findings support the criterion and factorial validity of the scale. The findings also support the use of the scale in surveys and for educational and trainings purposes
