Resumo: | Aims: Depression is one of the most common mental disorders in children, and in adolescents, as in adults. Once its occurrence during childhood and adolescence leads to serious consequences in adulthood, its early detection is an important goal. Self-report instruments have a key role in accessing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in an easily, reliably, and valid way. The aim of the current study is to assess psychometric properties (reliability and validity) of the Portuguese translation of the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC). Methods: A school-based sample of 417 adolescents aged 12–18 years (M = 15.20; SD = 1.72) was involved in this study. Translation and Back Translation was made. To study convergent and divergent validity there were used the Portuguese versions of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS 21), of the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), and of the Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS) which measure, respectively, negative emotional states (depression, anxiety, and stress), depressive symptoms and global life satisfaction. Results: Factor analysis revealed three factors (mood, interpersonal relationships, and happiness) that explain 54% of the variance. The results show that the scale has an excellent internal consistency (α = 0.90), good temporal stability (r = 0.72) as an adequate convergent and divergent validity. Results showed that depressive symptoms varied in function of age and gender. Conclusions: The results of the present study provide initial adequate validity and reliability of the CES-DC. Nevertheless some limitations to this study, the results suggest that CES-DC can be a useful questionnaire in the assessment of depressive symptoms in Portuguese adolescents. |

Uma vez que o seu aparecimento nestas faixas etárias se associa a consequências graves na idade adulta, é fundamental identificar os sintomas depressivos precocemente. Desta forma, os instrumentos de autorrelato têm um papel fundamental, uma vez que permitem com facilidade, de forma fidedigna e válida, ter acesso a formas de pensar, sentir e agir dos sujeitos. O objetivo do presente trabalho é avaliar as propriedades psicométricas (fidedignidade e validade) da tradução portuguesa da Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC). Método: A amostra é constituída por 417 adolescentes, com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 18 anos (M = 15,20, DP = 1,72). Foi utilizado o método translate – translate back na obtenção da versão na língua portuguesa. Para o estudo da validade convergente e divergente da CES-DC, foram utilizadas as versões portuguesas da Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS 21), do Children's Depresssion Inventory (CDI) e da Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS) que avaliam, respetivamente, os estados emocionais negativos (depressão, ansiedade e stress), a sintomatologia depressiva e a satisfação global com a vida. Resultados: A análise fatorial exploratória apontou uma solução de três fatores (fator humor, fator interpessoal e fator felicidade) que explicam 54% da variância. Os resultados obtidos mostram que a escala possui uma excelente consistência interna (α = 0,90), uma boa estabilidade temporal (r = 0,72), assim como uma validade convergente e divergente adequada. O sexo e a idade mostraram influenciar os valores médios dos sintomas depressivos. Conclusões: Não obstante poderem ser apontadas algumas limitações ao presente estudo, os resultados confirmam a adequação e robustez da CES-DC na população portuguesa, sugerindo, constituir um questionário útil na avaliação de sintomas depressivos nos adolescentes.Departamento de Investigação & Desenvolvimento do Instituto Superior Miguel Torga2015-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://doi.org/10.7342/ismt.rpics.2015.1.2.23https://doi.org/10.7342/ismt.rpics.2015.1.2.23Portuguese Journal of Behavioral and Social Research; Vol. 1 No. 2 (2015): September; 46–57Revista Portuguesa de Investigação Comportamental e Social; Vol. 1 N.º 2 (2015): Setembro; 46–572183-4938reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://rpics.ismt.pt/index.php/ISMT/article/view/23https://rpics.ismt.pt/index.php/ISMT/article/view/23/21https://rpics.ismt.pt/index.php/ISMT/article/view/23/htmlDireitos de Autor (c) 2015 Camila Carvalho, Marina Cunha, Sónia Cherpe, Ana Galhardo, & Margarida Coutohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarvalho, CamilaCunha, MarinaCherpe, SóniaGalhardo, AnaCouto, Margarida2023-05-25T22:00:45Zoai:ojs.rpics.ismt.pt:article/23Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:39:42.977742Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
