Abstract
Zusammenfassung.Theoretischer Hintergrund: Das Beck-Depressionsinventar (BDI) wurde 1996 einer Revision (BDI-II) unterzogen und liegt seit 2006 auch in deutschsprachiger Version vor. Die faktorielle Struktur des Instruments wurde bereits in internationalen Studien untersucht mit dem Ergebnis, dass in psychiatrischen und gesunden nichtstudentischen Stichproben zwei hoch korrelierte Faktoren (kognitiv und somatisch-affektiv) angenommen werden können. Fragestellung: Im vorliegenden Beitrag soll die faktorielle Struktur des deutschsprachigen BDI-II untersucht werden. Methoden: An zwei Stichproben (266 Depressive und 582 Gesunde) wurde mit explorativen und konfirmatorischen Faktorenanalysen untersucht, welche faktorielle Struktur sich als am geeignetsten erweist. Ergebnisse: Eine Lösung mit zwei Faktoren erwies sich in beiden Stichproben nach Inspektion verschiedener statistischer Kriterien und inhaltlicher Überlegungen als am passendsten. Die Faktoren ließen sich inhaltlich als kognitiv und als somatisch-affektiv bezeichnen. Schlussfolgerungen: Für das deutsche BDI-II ergibt sich im Einklang mit internationalen Studien eine Aufsplittung in zwei hoch korrelierte Faktoren.
Abstract.Background: The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) has underwent a revision in 1996 (BDI-II) and has recently been published in German (Hautzinger et al., 2006). International studies on the factorial validity of the BDI-II suggest two highly intercorrelated factors. Objective: To evaluate the factorial structure of the German BDI-II. Methods: Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed with a clinical (depressed patients, n = 266) and a nonclinical sample (n = 582). Results: Exploratory analyses indicated the presence of two highly intercorrelated factors (”somatic-affective”, ”cognitive”) in both subsamples. Confirmatory analyses showed that this two-factor model provided a better fit of the data than a one-factor model. Conclusions: In accordance with international studies investigating psychiatric and nonclinical nonstudent samples, we identified a two-factor structure of the BDI-II measuring cognitive and somatic-affective aspects of depression.
