抑郁体验问卷的跨性别测量等值性

Measurement Invariance of the Depressive Experience Questionnaire across Gender

目的:考察抑郁体验问卷(Depressive Experiences Questionnaire, DEQ)的跨性别测量等值性。方法:701名在校大学生以及306名心理科临床患者分别完成了抑郁体验问卷。采用多组验证性因素分析考察DEQ三因子结构分别在大学生样本与临床样本中的跨性别测量等值性。结果:多组验证性因素分析结果显示,DEQ三因子结构在不同性别大学生样本中的形态等值、弱等值及强等值成立;而在不同性别临床样本中,形态等值、弱等值及强等值、严格等值均成立。结论:DEQ的三因子结构在男性和女性之间具有测量等值性。

Objective: To examine the measurement invariance of the Depressive Experiences Questionnaire(DEQ across gender in the undergraduate sample and clinical patients with psychological disorders. Methods: A total of 701 undergraduates and 306 clinical patients with psychological disorders completed the Depressive Experiences Questionnaire.The multi-group confirmatory factor analysis was performed to examine the measurement invariance of DEQ across gender in undergraduate sample and clinical sample, respectively. Results: In the undergraduate sample, the configural invariance, metric invariance, and scalar invariance of the DEQ across gender were all acceptable. In the clinical sample, the configural invariance, metric invariance, scalar invariance, and strict invariance of the DEQ across gender were all acceptable.Conclusion: The Chinese version of the DEQ had measurement equivalence across gender both in college students and in clinical patients with psychological disorders.
