| الوصف: | Objective The six items of the clinician-administrated Hamilton Depression Scale (HAM-D(6)) cover the core items of depressive states reflecting the antidepressive effect of medication. In this study, the two self-reported versions of the HAM-D(6) have been psychometrically validated to ensure the unidimensionality of this administration form in patients with mild-to-moderate depression. Method The item response theory analysis of Mokken was used to test the unidimensionality of both the Interactive Voice Recording System (IVRS) version of the HAM-D(6) and a paper-and-pencil self-reported version (S-HAM-D(6)). Patients with typical major depression and with seasonal affective disorder were included. Results The Mokken analysis showed that the two self-reported versions of the HAM-D(6) obtained coefficients of homogeneity above 0.40, similar to the clinician-rated HAM-D(6) and thus implying unidimensionality. By contrast, the full HAM-D(17) versions (self-reported as well as clinician-rated) obtained coefficients of homogeneity below 0.40, implying that the HAM-D(17) is a multidimensional scale. Conclusion The analysis show that both the IVRS version and the S-HAM-D(6) version are unidimensional self-rating scales for the measurement of depressive states. |
