Anxiety and depression are common disorders in children and adolescents and can have a negative impact on their lives. The Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale - Child and Parent versions (RCADS and RCADS-P) are widely used standardized measurement tools, but the Slovenian versions have not yet been validated. The aim of the present study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Slovenian version of RCADS and RCADS-P in a representative Slovenian school sample.
We examined the psychometric properties (factor structure, internal reliability, short-term stability, inter-rater agreement and convergent validity) of the Slovenian version of the RCADS and the RCADS-P in 754 primary and secondary school students and parents of 485 students. The short-term stability of anxiety and depressive symptoms in youth was assessed in a subsample of 117 children and adolescents.
Confirmatory factor analysis showed an acceptable fit of the 6-factor model with CFI=0.92, TLI=0.92 and RMSEA=0.056 for RCADS and with CFI=0.93, TLI=0.92 and RMSEA=0.047 for RCADS-P. Cronbach's α and McDonald's ω ranged from 0.70 to 0.95 for the total scale and the six subscales. The subscales correlated significantly positively with the total Child Anxiety Life Interference Scale score.
The results affirm the good psychometric properties of the Slovenian versions of RCADS and RCADS-P within a school-based sample. There is a need in the future to examine psychometric properties in clinical samples and to provide normative data.
焦虑和抑郁是儿童和青少年常见的疾病，会对他们的生活产生负面影响。修订版儿童焦虑与抑郁量表——儿童版和家长版（RCADS和RCADS-P）是广泛使用的标准化测量工具，但斯洛文尼亚语版本尚未经过验证。本研究的目的是在具有代表性的斯洛文尼亚学校样本中检验RCADS和RCADS-P斯洛文尼亚语版本的心理测量特性。
我们在754名中小学生以及485名学生的家长中检验了RCADS和RCADS-P斯洛文尼亚语版本的心理测量特性（因子结构、内部信度、短期稳定性、评分者间一致性和聚合效度）。在117名儿童和青少年的子样本中评估了青少年焦虑和抑郁症状的短期稳定性。
验证性因素分析表明，6因素模型对RCADS的拟合度可接受，CFI = 0.92，TLI = 0.92，RMSEA = 0.056；对RCADS-P的拟合度为CFI = 0.93，TLI = 0.92，RMSEA = 0.047。总量表和六个子量表的Cronbach's α和McDonald's ω在0.70至0.95之间。子量表与儿童焦虑生活干扰总量表得分显著正相关。
结果证实了RCADS和RCADS-P斯洛文尼亚语版本在学校样本中的良好心理测量特性。未来有必要在临床样本中检验心理测量特性并提供常模数据。
