The present study examined the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale in adolescents. The results showed that the scale had good internal consistency, test-retest reliability, concurrent, convergent, and divergent validity in typical adolescents. It also demonstrated excellent eligibility and validity in depressed adolescents.
The Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale measures state anhedonia in multiple domains, such as hobbies, food and drink, social activities, and sensory experience, and it has good reliability and validity in adult samples. However, no study has examined the psychometrical properties of this scale in adolescents. The present study examined its reliability and validity in adolescents with and without depression. In Study 1, 988 high-school students completed the Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale; 915 completed the second-round survey 3 months later. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to determine the factor structure. Additionally, internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and concurrent, convergent, and divergent validity were assessed in typical adolescents. In Study 2, the Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale was administrated to 108 patients with major depressive disorder, 108 adolescents with subthreshold depression, and 108 healthy controls. Factor structure and convergent validity were assessed in the clinical and subclinical groups. Finally, a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was applied to examine the effect of depression severity on the scale scores. The results of Study 1 indicated that a four-factor model (i.e., hobbies, food and drink, social activities, and sensory experience) best fit the data. Meanwhile, the scale also yielded good concurrent, convergent, and divergent validity, as well as high internal consistency and test-retest reliability, in typical adolescents. In Study 2, goodness-of-fit statistics also suggested a good fit for the four-factor model in the two depressed groups. The one-way ANOVA revealed significant group differences in the total and factor scores, whereby the major depressive disorder group had lower scores than the subthreshold depression group, whose scores were lower than the healthy controls, indicating excellent eligibility of the scale in depressed adolescents. The Chinese version of the Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale is a reliable and valid instrument to comprehensively measure state anhedonia in Chinese typical and depressed adolescents.
