Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Patient Health Questionnaire in Mexican adolescents.
Introduction: The present study aimed to contribute to the analysis of the psychometric properties of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) in a sample of adolescents residing in San Luis Potosí (SLP), Mexico.
Methods: 768 adolescents from SLP, Mexico, participated in the study. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was conducted to test the one and two-factor models, taking into account the ordinal nature of the items in the model estimation method. Internal consistency was evaluated using the Coefficient alpha (α) and Coefficient omega (ω). Invariance measurement by sex was tested. Also, the relationship with the General Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7 scale) was tested.
Results: The CFA analyses indicated that both models, the one-factor model and the two-factor model, had a very good fit. The single factor and the two factors of the models demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (Coefficient alpha ranging from 0.779 to 0.896). Both models demonstrated measurement invariance by sex up to the Strong level. Additionally, a high Pearson correlation was found between the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 total scores (r = 0.812).
Conclusion: It is concluded that the PHQ-9 scale presents good psychometric properties for the Mexican adolescent population.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Psychology is the largest journal in its field, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across the psychological sciences, from clinical research to cognitive science, from perception to consciousness, from imaging studies to human factors, and from animal cognition to social psychology. Field Chief Editor Axel Cleeremans at the Free University of Brussels is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international researchers. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide. The journal publishes the best research across the entire field of psychology. Today, psychological science is becoming increasingly important at all levels of society, from the treatment of clinical disorders to our basic understanding of how the mind works. It is highly interdisciplinary, borrowing questions from philosophy, methods from neuroscience and insights from clinical practice - all in the goal of furthering our grasp of human nature and society, as well as our ability to develop new intervention methods.
