2. The Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale: Psychometric Properties in Depressed Adolescents

Author

Rogers, Gregory M., Park, Jong-Hyo, Essex, Marilyn J., Klein, Marjorie H., Silva, Susan G., Hoyle, Rick H., Curry, John F., Feeny, Norah C., Kennard, Betsy, Kratochvil, Christopher J., Pathak, Sanjeev, Reinecke, Mark A., Rosenberg, David R., Weller, Elizabeth B., and March, John S.

Abstract

The psychometric properties and factor structure of the Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale were examined in a sample of 422 male and female adolescents (ages 12-17) with current major depressive disorder. The scale demonstrated high internal consistency ([alpha] = 0.93) and correlated significantly with self-report and interview-based measures of depression. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that a correlated 2-factor model, with scales corresponding to perfectionism and need for social approval, provided a satisfactory fit to the data. The goodness-of-fit was equivalent across sexes and age groups. The findings support the use of the Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale and its subscales in the assessment of clinically depressed adolescents. (Contains 4 tables and 1 footnote.)

He has recurrent thoughts of wishing he were dead, a plan, but no intent to act. How would this affect medication management? This article presents the opinions of five clinicians on how they would approach this case vignette.
