Women who are victims of intimate partner violence often suffer of depression and anxiety disorders. We evaluated the performance of the SRQ-20 scale (screening test for common mental health disorders), in women victims of intimate partner violence by male partners. A total of 100 women were surveyed from the out-patient mental health services in four health institutions in Valle del Cauca (Colombia). SRQ-20 scales (Binary version versus Likert version) were compared with mental health diagnoses based on the HSCL-25 scale, as the gold standard. Optimal SRQ-20 cut-off score is > = 6 points; lower than the initially suggested, sensitivity of 96.6% and specificity of 90.9%. The new SRQ-20-Likert scale, establishing a cut-off of > = 8 points, shows better sensitivity (98.9%) and equal specificity than the original scale. Studied SRQ-20 scales are promising instruments for screening mental health disorders among women victims of intimate partner violence in primary health care settings.
受伴侣暴力侵害的女性常常患有抑郁和焦虑障碍。我们评估了 SRQ-20 量表（常见心理健康障碍筛查测试）在男性伴侣对女性伴侣暴力受害者中的表现。共有 100 名女性参与了来自哥伦比亚考卡山谷四个卫生机构的门诊心理健康服务的调查。SRQ-20 量表（二进制版本与李克特版本）与基于 HSCL-25 量表的心理健康诊断进行了比较，作为金标准。最佳的 SRQ-20 截断值为> = 6 分；低于最初建议的截断值，敏感性为 96.6%，特异性为 90.9%。新的 SRQ-20-李克特量表，确定> = 8 分的截断值，显示出比原始量表更高的敏感性（98.9%）和相同的特异性。研究中的 SRQ-20 量表是在初级卫生保健环境中筛查受伴侣暴力侵害的女性心理健康障碍的有前途的工具。
