The study's objective is to validate the Malay version of the Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4) among Malaysian undergraduates. A cross-sectional survey was distributed at three universities in Malaysia (N = 500; mean age = 21.66 ± 1.57). The internal consistency of the Malay PHQ-4 was acceptable (α = .78, 95 % CI [.74, .81]), while the test-retest reliability was good (ICC = .77, 95 % CI [.34, .91], p < .001). The one-factor structure showed the best fit in confirmatory factor analysis and was similar across sexes. The Malay PHQ-4 has acceptable psychometric properties and can be used for pre-clinical screening purposes among Malaysian undergraduate students.
本研究旨在验证马来语版患者健康问卷-4（PHQ-4）在马来西亚大学生中的适用性。研究采用横断面调查法，在马来西亚的三所大学中发放问卷（N=500；平均年龄=21.66±1.57）。马来语版 PHQ-4 的内部一致性可接受（α=0.78，95%置信区间[0.74，0.81]），重测信度良好（ICC=0.77，95%置信区间[0.34，0.91]，p<.001）。验证性因子分析显示单因素结构拟合度最佳，且在不同性别间具有相似性。马来语版 PHQ-4 具有可接受的心理测量学特性，可用于马来西亚大学生的临床前筛查。
