This study investigated the factor structure of the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI; Derogatis, 1992) for adult and adolescent psychiatric inpatients. The BSI was administered to 217 adults and 188 adolescents at admission and discharge from a private psychiatric hospital. Principal components factor analyses revealed that most variance among dimension scores was accounted for by one unrotated factor. Factorial invariance was evident across adult and adolescent samples for admission and discharge scores. Our findings are consistent with previous research on the BSI and Symptom Checklist-90-R (Derogatis, 1977), suggesting that both instruments measure primarily a unidimensional construct of general psychological distress.
本研究调查了成人及青少年精神科住院患者简明症状量表（BSI；德罗加蒂斯，1992年）的因子结构。在一家私立精神病医院，对217名成人和188名青少年患者在入院时和出院时施测了BSI。主成分因子分析显示，维度分数之间的大部分方差由一个未旋转因子解释。在成人和青少年样本中，入院和出院分数的因子不变性明显。我们的研究结果与之前关于BSI和症状自评量表90修订版（德罗加蒂斯，1977年）的研究一致，表明这两种工具主要测量一般心理困扰的单维结构。
