Depression is a common health problem in the adolescent population. The Reynolds Adolescent Depression Scale (RADS) is used to measure depression in clinical and community adolescent samples. Although there is available evidence for the reliability and validity of the RADS, there is insufficient documentation of its factor structure. This study examined the factor structure of the RADS in adolescent boys and girls (m-144). Internal consistency reliability ranged from .91 to .94 based on grade level, and was .91 for boys and .93 for girls. Factor analysis resulted in a 5-factor solution. Interpretation of factors were as follows: (a) Factor I--generalized demoralization; (b) Factor II--despondency and worry; (c) Factor III--externalized somatocism; (d) Factor IV--anhedonia; and, (e) Factor V--self-worth.
抑郁症是青少年群体中常见的健康问题。雷诺兹青少年抑郁量表（RADS）用于测量临床和社区青少年样本中的抑郁情况。尽管有证据表明RADS具有可靠性和有效性，但其因子结构的文献记录不足。本研究调查了RADS在青少年男孩和女孩（n = 144）中的因子结构。基于年级水平，内部一致性信度范围为0.91至0.94，男孩为0.91，女孩为0.93。因子分析得出了一个五因子解决方案。各因子的解释如下：（a）因子I——普遍的士气低落；（b）因子II——沮丧和担忧；（c）因子III——外化的躯体症状；（d）因子IV——快感缺失；以及（e）因子V——自我价值。
