Abstract

The Mood Disorders Questionnaire (MDQ) is a 3-item scale that is frequently used in bipolar disorders (BD) screening and questions the symptoms of BD, its effect on functionality, and the coexistence of symptoms. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of positive screening of the MDQ among general population and to investigate the associated risk factors.In this cross-sectional study, the sample was randomly selected from household data to represent the city population. A total of 432 participants were asked to fill in MDQ, CAGE (cutting down, annoyance by criticism, guilty feeling, and eye-openers) questionnaire, which consists of four clinical interview questions proven to aid in the diagnosis of alcoholism, and clinical and sociodemographic data form.The Cronbach's alpha value of our current study was 0.813 for MDQ. The prevalence of MDQ positivity was found 7.6%. The estimated prevalence rate of bipolar disorders varied between 0.3 and 13.4% according to different cut-off values. Multivariate logistic regression models showed that the presence of possible alcohol addiction, shift work history, and body mass index (BMI) were statistically significant predictors of MDQ positivity.The prevalence of MDQ positivity found is similar to studies in literature. Keeping in mind that psychometric properties of the MDQ, positive screen results should be cautiously interpreted due to the presence of other risk factors and comorbidities.

在一项基于人群的筛查研究中评估情绪障碍问卷的积极性和相关因素。

心境障碍问卷(MDQ)是一种3项量表，常用于双相情感障碍(BD)筛查，询问双相情感障碍的症状、对功能的影响以及症状的共存。本研究的目的是评估MDQ阳性筛查在普通人群中的流行程度，并调查相关的危险因素。在这个横断面研究中，样本是从家庭数据中随机选择的，代表城市人口。共要求432名参与者填写MDQ、CAGE(减少、批评烦恼、负罪感和大开眼界)问卷，该问卷由四个经证实有助于酒精中毒诊断的临床访谈问题和临床及社会人口学数据组成。本研究MDQ的Cronbach’s alpha值为0.813。MDQ阳性率为7.6%。根据不同的临界值，双相情感障碍的估计患病率在0.3 - 13.4%之间。多变量logistic回归模型显示，可能存在的酒精成瘾、轮班工作史和身体质量指数(BMI)是MDQ阳性的统计显著预测因子。MDQ阳性的流行程度与文献研究相似。记住MDQ的心理测量特性，由于存在其他危险因素和合并症，应谨慎解释阳性筛查结果。
