Assessed reliability and validity for an instrument that was designed to assess depressiform cognitions. Following the model proposed by Abramson et al. (1978) the scale was developed in order to evaluate attributions of internal vs. external responsibility, situational specificity or generality, and temporal stability or instability. Because the model also proposes that one's attributions vary as a function of the positive or negative consequences that occur in a situation, the scale varied the type of consequence to which a cause was being attributed. Initial item validation was undertaken with a sample of 17 graduate students and faculty members who rated the response alternatives. Subsequent internal validity, reliability, and convergent validity were assessed on 184 undergraduate students. The results suggest that the scale is promising for the assessment of depressiform attributions. However, a strong sex effect also was noted in some of the characteristics of attribution and suggests the need to evaluate sexual-cultural differences in attributional processes associated with depression.
评估了一种旨在评估抑郁型认知的工具的信度和效度。按照阿布拉姆森等人（1978年）提出的模型开发了该量表，以评估内部与外部责任的归因、情境特异性或普遍性以及时间稳定性或不稳定性。由于该模型还提出，一个人的归因会因情境中出现的积极或消极后果而有所不同，因此该量表改变了归因原因所对应的后果类型。最初的项目验证是对17名研究生和教师进行的，他们对回答选项进行了评分。随后对184名本科生进行了内部效度、信度和收敛效度评估。结果表明，该量表在评估抑郁型归因方面很有前景。然而，在归因的一些特征中也发现了强烈的性别效应，这表明有必要评估与抑郁症相关的归因过程中的性别文化差异。
