The study aimed to examine the validity of the Suicide Behavior Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R) among adult Filipinos experiencing severe depression symptoms during the COVID-19-related lockdowns in 2020. Results support SBQ-R's internal reliability. Confirmatory factor analyses supported SBQ-R's one-factor structure and its measurement invariance across gender and age. The SBQ-R's positive relationship with negative affect and its negative relationships with positive affect and family support demonstrate the questionnaire's criterion-related validity. The SBQ-R's cutoff of ≥8 shows that 78% of the sample were at-risk for suicide. The SBQ-R is valid in assessing suicide risk among severely depressed adults during the COVID-19 pandemic.
该研究旨在检验2020年新冠疫情相关封锁期间有严重抑郁症状的成年菲律宾人使用的修订版自杀行为问卷(SBQ-R)的有效性。结果支持SBQ-R的内部信度。验证性因素分析支持SBQ-R的单因素结构及其在性别和年龄上的测量不变性。SBQ-R与消极情绪的正相关以及与积极情绪和家庭支持的负相关证明了该问卷的效标关联效度。SBQ-R≥8的临界值表明78%的样本有自杀风险。SBQ-R在评估新冠疫情期间严重抑郁的成年人的自杀风险方面是有效的。
