The mood modules from the Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders (PRIME-MD) and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) were administered to 17 (52%) female and 16 (48%) male adolescent (13–17 years old) psychiatric inpatients. The internal consistencies of both were good (KR-20 for PRIME-MD = .80, Cronbach coefficient α for Patient Health Questionnaire = .85). The correlation between the PRIME-MD and Patient Health Questionnaire total scores was .87 ( p < .001) and the point-biserial correlation of both questionnaires' total scores with being diagnosed with a Major Depressive Disorder was .54 ( p < .001). Both mood modules appeared to be equally effective in screening for a Major Depressive Disorder.

Phobic postural vertigo (PPV) is a frequent diagnosis which can be challenging to treat. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the presence of psychiatric disturbances in patients with PPV; to assess the psychological status of patients using adaptive diagnosis; to verify possible correlations between severity of psychiatric disturbance and adaptive efficacy. METHOD: A total of nineteen subjects were assessed and two instruments applied: the Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders Questionnaire (PRIME-MD) and the Adaptive Operationalized Diagnostic Scale (AODS), and results from both tests were compared. RESULTS: Fourteen patients presented with mood disorder and thirteen with anxiety. All patients presented compromised adaptive efficacy. Correlation was found between overall outcome on the PRIME and the AODS (tau= -0.42, p=0.027), Separate analysis revealed correlation between results of the AODS and anxiety disorders (tau= -0.45, p=0.018) but not with mood disorders (tau= -0.36, p=0.054). CONCLUSION: Adaptive compromise was observed in individuals with PPV which was shown to be associated to psychiatric disorders.

Poczucie braku nadziei często towarzyszy adolescentom nie tylko ze względu na ich wiek rozwojowy, ale i codzienną rzeczywistość (zwłaszcza szkolną). Poczucie beznadziejności to jedno z kryteriów diagnostycznych, które powinno być spełnione podczas rozpoznania zaburzeń depresyjnych. Mogące z nim współwystępować zaburzenia snu czy skłonność do naudżywania alkoholu to dodatkowe czynniki ryzyka, które wpływają nie tylko na aktualną jakość życia, ale i przyszłość młodych ludzi.Celem pracy jest odpowiedź na pytanie, czy młodzież szkolna doświadcza poczucia braku nadziei? Dodatkowym celem jest próba zestawienia powyższych wyników z ewentualnie współwystępującymi z nim zaburzeniami psychicznymi i podjęcie polemiki na temat możliwego wpływu oczekiwań społecznych na sposób postrzegania rzeczywistości przez adolescentów.Badanie przeprowadzono na grupie 71 pełnoletnich uczniów klas maturalnych w publicznej szkole ponadgimnazjalnej z województwa pomorskiego. Zastosowano dwie metody: Kwestionariusz Zdrowia Pacjenta (Primary Care Evaluation od Mental Disorders Patiet Health Questionnaire [PRIME-MD-PHQ]), który ocenia objawy pięciu grup zaburzeń psychicznych, oraz Skalę Poczucia Beznadziejności Becka (Beck Hoplessness Scale [BHS]). Wykazano, że 43,7% badanej młodzieży nie doświadcza poczucia braku nadziei, 35,2% odczuwa łagodne poczucie beznadziejności, 14% prezentuje umiarkowany poziom braku nadziei, a 7,1% cechuje się głębokim poczuciem beznadziejności. Dodatkowo na podstawie przeprowadzonego badania stwierdzono, że najczęściej występującym w tej grupie osób badanych jest zaburzenie snu (48,57%) oraz skłonność do nadużywania alkoholu (21,43%).

Care Evaluation

The effectiveness of the Beck Anxiety (BAI-PC) and Depression (BDI-PC) Inventories for Primary Care for discriminating 56 primary care patients with and without revised, third edition Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ( DSM-III-R) diagnosed anxiety and mood disorders was studied. The Anxiety and Mood modules from the Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders (PRIME-MD) were used to establish diagnoses. The coefficient alphas for the BAI-PC and BDI-PC were, respectively, .90 and .88. A BAI-PC cutoff score of 5 and above yielded the highest clinical efficiency (82%) with 85% sensitivity and 81% specificity for identifying patients with and without panic, generalized anxiety, or both disorders, whereas a BDI-PC cutoff score of 6 and above afforded the highest clinical efficiency (92%) with 83% sensitivity and 95% specificity for detecting patients with and without major depressive disorders. The use of these instruments to screen primary care patients before conducting extensive diagnostic evaluations with them was discussed.
