Abstract

Background

Two of the most extensively utilized questionnaires for assessing symptoms of anxiety and depression are Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Beck Depression Inventory-second version (BDI-II).

Aim

Given the absence of normative data based on a representative Scandinavian cohort, the primary objective is to provide normative data from a representative Swedish general population sample and explore potential associations with sociodemographic variables.

Methods

Data was collected 2019 from a pre-stratified Swedish adult population sample (n = 2622).

Results

The average mean value showed: a mild level of anxiety (8.7 ± 9.5) and a minimal level of depression (3.4 ± 5.6). Higher BAI and BDI-II scores were observed in women and younger individuals. There was an association between educational attainment and BDI-II scores, where those with a bachelor's degree or higher reported a lower depression score. Results show that BAI and BDI-II deviate from normality but demonstrate excellent internal consistency (McDonald's omega 0.92 and 0.91, respectively). BAI had a poor model fit (RMSEA) 0.11), while BDI-II had a fair model fit (RMSEA 0.08).

Discussion

The present study presents normative data for BAI and BDI-II based on a representative sample from the Swedish general population. The model fit was not ideal, indicating caution, particularly for BAI.

瑞典版贝克焦虑指数和贝克抑郁量表的规范性数据-第2版
背景:贝克焦虑量表(BAI)和贝克抑郁量表第二版(BDI-II)是评估焦虑和抑郁症状最广泛使用的两种问卷。鉴于缺乏基于具有代表性的斯堪的纳维亚队列的规范性数据,本研究的主要目标是提供具有代表性的瑞典一般人口样本的规范性数据,并探索与社会人口变量的潜在关联。方法2019年从预分层的瑞典成年人样本(n = 2622)中收集数据。结果平均得分为:轻度焦虑(8.7±9.5)分,轻度抑郁(3.4±5.6)分。在女性和年轻人中观察到较高的BAI和BDI-II评分。受教育程度与BDI-II得分之间存在关联,拥有学士学位或更高学位的人抑郁得分较低。结果表明,BAI和BDI-II偏离正态,但具有良好的内部一致性(麦当劳ω分别为0.92和0.91)。BAI的模型拟合较差(RMSEA为0.11),而BDI-II的模型拟合较好(RMSEA为0.08)。本研究提出了基于瑞典普通人群代表性样本的BAI和BDI-II的规范数据。模型拟合并不理想,需要谨慎,特别是对于BAI。

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research (MPR) publishes high-standard original research of a technical, methodological, experimental and clinical nature, contributing to the theory, methodology, practice and evaluation of mental and behavioural disorders. The journal targets in particular detailed methodological and design papers from major national and international multicentre studies. There is a close working relationship with the US National Institute of Mental Health, the World Health Organisation (WHO) Diagnostic Instruments Committees, as well as several other European and international organisations. MPR aims to publish rapidly articles of highest methodological quality in such areas as epidemiology, biostatistics, generics, psychopharmacology, psychology and the neurosciences. Articles informing about innovative and critical methodological, statistical and clinical issues, including nosology, can be submitted as regular papers and brief reports. Reviews are only occasionally accepted. MPR seeks to monitor, discuss, influence and improve the standards of mental health and behavioral neuroscience research by providing a platform for rapid publication of outstanding contributions. As a quarterly journal MPR is a major source of information and ideas and is an important medium for students, clinicians and researchers in psychiatry, clinical psychology, epidemiology and the allied disciplines in the mental health field.
