Binge-watching is a relatively new behaviour pattern whose popularity has been increasing since 2013, ultimately to become one of the most popular ways of spending free time, especially among young people (Starosta, 2020). This psychometric tool was designed to measure the dimensions of Physiological, Behavioural, and Psychological effects of binge-watching. BWS consisted of 30 items, with 10 items in each dimension. Normative Analysis and Reliability Analysis were used to test the properties of the scale. The scale was standardized on the young adult population within the age range of 18 – 25. The Binge-watching Scale was a valid and reliable instrument with a Cronbach’s alpha of α = 0.884, indicating that the psychometric tool was highly reliable. The results had implications for research purposes, screening the three levels of functionality of an individual, and helping to formulate any intervention strategies if required.Metrics
