This study evaluated the psychometric performance of three climate anxiety measures-the Hogge Climate Anxiety Scale (HCAS), Clayton Climate Change Anxiety Scale (CCCA), and Simon Climate Anxiety Scale (SCAS)-among 279 Persian-speaking older adults in Iran. Using a cross-sectional design, we examined structural validity, diagnostic accuracy, measurement invariance, and reliability, employing the GAI-SF as the criterion measure. All three instruments demonstrated acceptable construct validity based on exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. SCAS showed a stable three-factor structure and excellent internal consistency (ω = 0.97). In classification analyses, SCAS achieved the highest sensitivity (0.89) and overall diagnostic accuracy (DOR = 3.09), whereas CCCA demonstrated slightly higher specificity (0.36). Bland-Altman analysis indicated that HCAS had the lowest measurement bias relative to GAI-SF scores. Measurement invariance testing supported full scalar invariance for SCAS across gender and anxiety subgroups, while HCAS and CCCA achieved only partial invariance. Mokken scale analysis further confirmed strong scalability (H > 0.40) and satisfactory reliability (α > 0.85) across all measures, with CCCA showing the highest Loevinger's H (0.52).
