背景资料：虽然一些研究已经研究了爱丁堡产后抑郁量表（EPDS）的因素结构，主要是白色或非洲裔美国人的样本，没有发表的研究报告中的因素结构之间的西班牙裔妇女居住在美国。目的：本研究探讨了在美国的西班牙裔母亲的EPDS的因素结构。方法：在220名西班牙裔妇女，从儿科初级保健设置，与0至10个月的婴儿，6个结构模型的实证文献指导下进行了评估，使用验证性因素分析。结果：研究结果支持抑郁和焦虑的二因素模型为最佳拟合模型。多组模型支持因子不变性的妇女谁完成了EDPS在英语和西班牙语。结论：这些研究结果提供了初步的支持，在美国的西班牙裔妇女的EPDS的2因素结构。(C)2014 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.
Background: Although a number of studies have examined the factor structure of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) in predominately White or African American samples, no published research has reported on the factor structure among Hispanic women who reside in the United States. Objective: The current study examined the factor structure of the EPDS among Hispanic mothers in the United States. Method: Among 220 Hispanic women, drawn from a pediatric primary care setting, with an infant aged 0 to 10 months, 6 structural models guided by the empirical literature were evaluated using confirmatory factor analysis. Results: Results supported a 2-factor model of depression and anxiety as the best fitting model. Multigroup models supported the factorial invariance across women who completed the EDPS in English and Spanish. Conclusion: These findings provide initial support for the 2-factor structure of the EPDS among Hispanic women in the United States. (C) 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
