美国农场工人包括越来越多的人，他们来自墨西哥南部哥伦布时代之前的土著社区，拥有独特的语言和文化。鉴于这些农场工人在具有挑战性的工作环境中承受的巨大压力，他们非常容易患上抑郁症和其他心理和情绪健康障碍。本研究探索了西班牙语版的患者健康问卷-9(PHQ-9)，作为对抑郁的存在和严重程度的筛查。123名墨西哥原住民，俄勒冈州的外来农场工人。检验了PHQ-9的因子结构和条目间相关性，以及抑郁与文化束缚综合征、自尊、自我效能、文化适应压力和其他样本心理社会特征之间的关系。PHQ-9表现出很强的因素负荷和内部一致性，其严重程度得分与先前研究中观察到的与抑郁显著相关的其他健康状况指标显著相关。PHQ-9似乎在文化上与墨西哥人有关，这些墨西哥人来自不同的土著文化，教育程度和识字率很低
U.S. farmworkers include growing numbers of individuals from indigenous, pre-Columbian communities in southern Mexico with distinctive languages and cultures. Given the high stress these farmworkers experience in their challenging work environments, they are very susceptible to depression and other mental and emotional health disorders. The present study explores the Spanish version of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) as a screen for the presence and severity of depression among. 123 indigenous Mexican-origin, migrant farmworkers in Oregon. Factor structure and inter-item correlations of the PHQ-9 are examined, along with associations between depression and culture-bound syndromes, self-esteem, self-efficacy, acculturation stress, and other sample psychosocial characteristics. The PHQ-9 exhibited strong factor loadings and internal consistency, and its severity score significantly correlated with other indicators of health status that were observed in previous studies to be significantly associated with depression. The PHQ-9 appears to be culturally relevant for use with Mexicans coming from a variety of indigenous cultures and having very low education and literacy
