There is little information about the reliability and validity of the 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) in Ghana. This study sought to examine the reliability and factor structure of the GHQ-12 in Ghanaian adolescents.
High school students (N = 770) completed the GHQ-12 and the Adolescent Stress Questionnaire (ASQ). Internal consistency, convergent validity and exploratory factor analysis were used.
A two factor structure, each with six items, was extracted. The total GHQ-12 had acceptable internal consistency and a generally high correlation with the ASQ subscales.
The GHQ-12 can be used in Ghanaian samples, but more research is needed to confirm its factor structure.
关于12项一般健康问卷（GHQ - 12）在加纳的信度和效度的信息很少。本研究旨在检验GHQ - 12在加纳青少年中的信度和因子结构。
高中生（N = 770）完成了GHQ - 12和青少年压力问卷（ASQ）。使用了内部一致性、收敛效度和探索性因子分析。
提取出一个两因子结构，每个因子有六个项目。GHQ - 12总分具有可接受的内部一致性，并且与ASQ分量表总体相关性较高。
GHQ - 12可用于加纳样本，但需要更多研究来确认其因子结构。
