The performance of 25 mentally retarded and 25 normal IQ adolescents was investigated on self-report and informant versions of three childhood depression measures. These measures included the Children's Depression Inventory, the Bellevue Index of Depression, and the Reynolds Child Depression Scale. Adolescents with mild to severe levels of mental retardation were studied. Strong correlations between total scores of measures were found. Analyses of variance comparing mentally retarded and intellectually average adolescents differed significantly only on the Bellevue Index of Depression. Finally, the relationship between self-report and informant versions of these measures were correlated, with mixed results. Implications for the use of these scales in assessing depression of mentally retarded adolescents are discussed.
对25名智力发育迟缓青少年和25名智商正常的青少年在三种儿童抑郁测量方法的自我报告版和知情者版上的表现进行了调查。这些测量方法包括儿童抑郁量表、贝尔维尤抑郁指数和雷诺兹儿童抑郁量表。研究对象为轻度至重度智力发育迟缓的青少年。发现各测量方法总分之间存在强相关性。比较智力发育迟缓青少年和智力中等青少年的方差分析仅在贝尔维尤抑郁指数上有显著差异。最后,这些测量方法的自我报告版和知情者版之间的关系存在相关性,但结果不一。讨论了在评估智力发育迟缓青少年抑郁时使用这些量表的意义。
