RésuméAfin d'évaluer la fréquence et les manifestations de la dépression à l'adolescence, une enquête a été réalisée auprès de 744 lycéens (439 garçons et 305 filles), âgés de 14 à 23 ans, et appartenant à 15 établissements d'enseignement du second degré du département du Nord. La première partie de l'enquête a consisté en la passation de deux autoquestionnaires: la version française de l'échelle CES-D (Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale); et un questionnaire destiné à recueillir un certain nombre de renseignements concernant la situation sociodémographique du sujet, son état de santé et celui de ses parents, son mode de vie, ses relations familiales, son degré d'insertion scolaire et sociale. La deuxième partie a consisté en un examen clinique semi-standardisé visant à repérer les adolescents présentant un épisode dépressif majeur selon les critères diagnostiques du DSMIII-R. Sur les 728 lycéens examinés, 32 (18 garçons et 14 filles) présentaient un épisode dépressif majeur (soit une prévalence de 4,4%). Les critères diagnostiques du DSMIII-R les plus discriminants pour l'identification des adolescents déprimés ont été, par ordre d'importance décroissante: l'humeur dépressive, la diminution de l'intérêt ou du plaisir, l'agitation ou le ralentissement psychomoteur, la diminution de la capacité à réfléchir ou à se concentrer, et les idées récurrentes de mort. Le score moyen obtenu à la CES-D chez les adolescents déprimés apparaît très significativement supérieur à celui obtenu chez les adolescents non déprimés (28,9 ±8 vs 13,5 ± 8,2). Enfin, parmi les variables étudiées, certaines apparaissent significativement associées à la dépression; difficultés scolaires, problèmes de santé multiples et variés, attitudes particulières vis-à-vis du poids et de l'alimentation, problèmes de sommeil, conduites antisociales. Des problèmes de santé, en particulier d'ordre psychiatrique, sont aussi plus fréquemment retrouvés chez les parents des adolescents déprimés. En conclusion, cette étude montre que la dépression, dans sa forme typique, n'est pas rare à l'adolescence mais qu'elle est aussi souvent méconnue. C'est dire la nécessité de là rechercher devant tout problème psychopathologique survenant à l'adolescence. C'est dire aussi l'intérêt des études épidémiologiques visant à préciser la phénoménologie de la dépression à cet âge de la vie.

Abstract. To investigate the effect of response alternatives/scoring procedures on the measurement properties of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) which has the four response alternatives, a polytomous item response theory (IRT) model was applied to the responses of 2,061 workers and university students (1,640 males, 421 females). Test information functions derived from the polytomous IRT analyses on the CES-D data with various scoring procedures indicated that: (1) the CES-D with its standard (0-1-2-3) scoring procedure should be useful for screening to detect subjects with “at high-risk” of depression if the θ point showing the highest information corresponds to the cut-off point, because of its extremely higher information; (2) the CES-D with the 0-1-1-2 scoring procedure could cover wider range of depressive severity, suggesting that this scoring procedure might be useful in cases where more exhaustive discrimination in symptomatology is of interest; and (3) the revised version of CES-D with replacing original positive items into negatively revised items outperformed the original version. These findings have never been demonstrated by the classical test theory analyses, and thus the utility of this kind of psychometric testing should be warranted to further investigation for the standard measures of psychological assessment.

We aimed to verify the factor model and measurement invariance of the abbreviated Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale by conducting a confirmatory factor analysis using data from 761 parents of individuals with intellectual disabilities who completed the scale as part of the 2011 Survey on the Actual Conditions of Individuals with Developmental Disabilities, South Korea, and 7,301 participants from the general population who completed the scale as part of the 2011 Welfare Panel Study and Survey by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, South Korea. We used fit indices to assess data reliability and Amos 22.0 for data analysis. According to the results, the 4-factor model had an appropriate fit to the data and the regression coefficients were significant. However, the chi-square difference test result was nonsignificant; therefore, the metric invariance model was the most appropriate measurement invariance model for the data. Implications of the findings are discussed.

To make the Japanese version of the CESD-R—a revised version of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies depression scale (CES-D)—in the assessment of depressive symptoms in a general population. The English version of CESD-R was translated into Japanese, and back-translated into English by three native speakers of Japanese and English; then, we selected the version most completely consistent with the original items. The CESD-R was applied to 398 community-dwelling people (191 men: 48.0%, and 207 women: 52.0%) who were over 40 years old. The Japanese version of the CES-D was also carried out in the same population. Factor analysis was performed. Additionally, the correlations between the CESD-R and CES-D results were identified. The CESD-R scores showed a significantly positive correlation with CES-D scores (r = 0.74, p < 0.0005). Analysis of the CESD-R yielded a Cronbach’s alpha result of 0.90. Factor analysis revealed one principal factor in the CESD-R, whereas the original CES-D had two factors because of reversed items. The Japanese version of the CESD-R appears to have the reliability to be applicable for assessing depressive symptoms in population-based samples. However, because the Japanese expressions for some items might be unusual, our study population was also limited; further studies on other populations and on incorporating improved Japanese terminology will be needed.

ObjectivesDuring a pandemic, healthcare providers experience increased mental and physical burden. Burnout can lead to treatment errors, patient mortality, increased suicidal ideation and substance abuse as well as medical malpractice suits among medical staff. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of burnout, acute stress disorder, anxiety disorder and depressive disorder among healthcare providers at the third month of the COVID-19 pandemic.DesignA cross-sectional facility-based survey.SettingHospitals around the country with different levels of care.ParticipantsA total of 1795 respondents, including 360 men and 1435 women who participated in the survey.Primary outcome measuresBurnout was assessed using the Physician Work Life Study. A score of ≥3 implied burnout.ResultsOf the 1795 respondents, 723 (40.3%) reported burnout, and 669 (37.3%) cared for patients with COVID-19. Anxiety levels were mild in 185 (10.3%) respondents, moderate in 209 (11.6%) and severe in 1401 (78.1%). The mean Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale-10 score was 9.5±6.3, and 817 (45.5%) respondents were classified as having depression. Factors associated with burnout were working in acute and critical care (ACC) divisions (adjusted OR (aOR)=1.84, 95% CI 1.20 to 3.39, p=0.019), caring for patients with COVID-19 (aOR=3.90, 95% CI 1.14 to 13.37, p=0.031) and having depressive disorder (aOR=9.44, 95% CI 7.44 to 11.97, p<0.001).ConclusionsPhysicians and nurses are vulnerable to burnout during a pandemic, especially those working in ACC divisions. Anxiety disorder, depressive disorder and care of patients with COVID-19 may be factors that influence the occurrence of burnout among healthcare providers.
