The aim of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of a Portuguese version of the Postpartum Depression Screening Scale (PDSS). A total of 120 new mothers completed the translated version of PDSS and later were interviewed using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders, our gold standard for clinical status. The best cut-off score for the Portuguese version was 102, with a sensibility of 94%, a specificity of 95%, a positive predictive value of 75% and a negative predictive value of 99%. Reliability, measured by the alpha coefficient of internal consistency, was .95. The PDSS is considered ready for use in the screening of Brazilian new mothers for postpartum depression.
本研究旨在确定葡萄牙语版产后抑郁筛查量表（PDSS）的有效性和可靠性。共有120名新妈妈完成了PDSS的翻译版本，随后使用《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第四版轴I障碍结构化临床访谈对她们进行访谈，这是我们评估临床状态的金标准。葡萄牙语版的最佳临界值为102分，敏感度为94%，特异度为95%，阳性预测值为75%，阴性预测值为99%。通过内部一致性的α系数衡量的可靠性为0.95。PDSS被认为可用于筛查巴西新妈妈的产后抑郁。
