Laburpena

El objetivo de la presente investigación consistió en validar la versión en euskera del CDS (Children's Depression Scale, Lang y Tisher, 1978), uno de los instrumentos más utilizados para evaluar la depresión infantil y que ha mostrado buenas propiedades psicométricas en diversas culturas. El cuestionario ha sido administrado a una muestra comunitaria de 886 participantes (432 varones y 454 mujeres) de edades comprendidas entre los 8 y los 16 años. Se ha obtenido una estructura de dos dimensiones (Depresiva y Positiva) que explican el 29,86 % de la varianza. La fiabilidad, evaluada mediante el análisis de su consistencia interna y estabilidad temporal, ha resultado adecuada (a = .95 y .79; y R = .73 y .59 para las dimensiones Depresiva y Positiva, respectivamente). El análisis del funcionamiento diferencial de los ítems con respecto al sexo y la edad mostró que el 91% y el 88% de los ítems, respectivamente, no presentan DIF. Asimismo, se obtuvieron evidencias de validez externa del instrumento. Consideramos que con el presente trabajo se pone a disposición de investigadores y profesionales interesados en este ámbito de estudio, un instrumento de evaluación fiable y válido para medir los síntomas depresivos en niños y adolescentes vascoparlantes.
