Validity and reliability of Children's Depression Inventory among primary school students in Chongqing
To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) in Chongqing primary school students aged 6~13 years
and analyze their depression situation.
Methods
2
Cluster sampling was used to conduct psychological assessment on 30 088 students aged 6~13 years from 56 primary schools in an urban area of Chongqing during December 2020 and January 2021. Cronbach's α coefficient
Pearson correlation analysis
exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to test the reliability and validity of CDI. ANOVA test and
t
test were used to analyze the depression of students.
Results
2
① The reliability analysis showed that the total internal consistency coefficient of CDI was 0.830
the α coefficient of each subscale was 0.488~0.752
and the partial correlation coefficient was 0.867. In the validity analysis
content validity showed that
except for item 26
the correlation coefficients between the other items and the total score were ≥0.349
with statistical significance (
P
<
0.01). The structural validity showed that the five-factor model fitted well after modification. ② The total score of depression was 10.97±7.86
and that of the boys was 10.66±7.56
which was significantly lower than that of the girls (11.29±8.16
P
<
0.001). According to their age and sex
the overall depression of primary school students presented a three-stage distribution
and the age of 10 years was the demarcation point of the difference between the boys and girls.
Conclusion
2
The CDI scale has good reliability and validity in Chongqing primary school students aged 6~13 years
but some contents still need to be modified. Depression situation differs from different age and gender.
