Socially anxious and healthy Spanish adolescents were studied in order to test the psychometric properties of the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED). Confirmatory factor analyses were employed to test measurement invariance between these two populations, Cronbach's alphas were calculated to determine the reliabilities of the scales, and partial eta-square tests calculated the effect size of the differences between socially anxious and healthy adolescents and between the adolescent boys and girls. The psychometric properties of the SCARED were good, as demonstrated by having acceptable reliabilities (ranging from .75 - .41) and a moderate multivariate effect size (η(p)(2) = .08) between the adolescent boys and girls. Most importantly, it was demonstrated that the SCARED could differentiate between socially anxious and healthy Spanish adolescents as demonstrated by measurement invariance (χ(2) = 254.27, df = 1343, GFI = .884, AGFI = .872, RMR = .031) and the large effect size (η(p)(2) = .22) between the samples.
为了检验儿童焦虑相关情绪障碍筛查表（SCARED）的心理测量学特性，对社会焦虑和健康的西班牙青少年进行了研究。采用验证性因子分析来检验这两个群体之间的测量不变性，计算克朗巴赫α系数以确定量表的信度，并用部分 eta 平方检验来计算社会焦虑和健康青少年之间以及青少年男女之间差异的效应大小。SCARED 的心理测量学特性良好，表现为可接受的信度（范围为.75-.41）和青少年男女之间中等的多变量效应大小（η(p)(2) =.08）。最重要的是，正如测量不变性（χ(2) = 254.27，df = 1343，GFI =.884，AGFI =.872，RMR =.031）和样本之间的大效应大小（η(p)(2) =.22）所示，SCARED 可以区分社会焦虑和健康的西班牙青少年。
