在本文中，我们研究了西班牙裔健康和营养检查调查（西班牙裔 HANES）中流行病学研究中心抑郁量表（CES-D）的因素结构。西班牙裔 HANES 提供了一个独特的机会来检查美国三个主要西班牙裔群体的抑郁症状模式，并将分析中出现的因素结构与使用这种方法的其他研究进行比较。与之前对非西班牙裔人群的 CES-D 分析相比，西班牙裔群体出现了不同的因素结构。我们还发现墨西哥裔美国人、波多黎各人和古巴裔美国人之间存在显着的组内差异，这些差异很大程度上受到受访者性别和受访者接受采访时使用的语言的影响。
In this paper, we examine the factor structure of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D) in the Hispanic Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (Hispanic HANES). The Hispanic HANES provides a unique opportunity to examine the patterning of depressive symptoms among the three major Hispanic groups in the U.S. and to compare the factor structures that emerge from the analysis to other studies using this approach. Different factor structures emerged for the Hispanic groups as compared to previous analyses of the CES-D with non-Hispanic populations. We also found significant intra-group differences among Mexican-Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Cuban-Americans which were strongly influenced by the gender of the respondent and the language in which the person was interviewed.
