This study compares the screening capacity of an age-adjusted child-oriented questionnaire, the Young Adult Self Report (YASR) with two adult-oriented questionnaires, the General Health Questionnaire-28 (GHQ-28) and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) in a sample of young adults (18-25 years). The YASR performed just as well as the SCL-90 and both performed better than the GHQ-28. The relatively poor performance of the GHQ-28 compared with the YASR and SCL-90 could not be attributed to instrument characteristics or to the use of referral status as indicator of psychopathology. In assessing psychopathology in young adults an age-adjusted child-oriented instrument might be a good alternative to the existing adult-oriented instruments, especially when one takes into account the problem of data comparability over time in longitudinal studies in which children are followed into adulthood.
本研究在一组年轻成年人（18至25岁）样本中，比较了一份年龄调整后的儿童导向问卷——青少年自评量表（YASR）与两份成人导向问卷——一般健康问卷-28（GHQ-28）和症状自评量表-90（SCL-90）的筛查能力。YASR的表现与SCL-90相当，且两者均比GHQ-28表现更好。与YASR和SCL-90相比，GHQ-28表现相对较差，这不能归因于工具特性或使用转诊状态作为精神病理学指标。在评估年轻成年人的精神病理学方面，一份年龄调整后的儿童导向工具可能是现有成人导向工具的一个不错替代选择，尤其是当考虑到在跟踪儿童至成年的纵向研究中数据随时间的可比性问题时。
