“…A subsample was newly administered the RCTQ-13 5 days after the first administration to evaluate test-retest reliability. To evaluate construct validity through hypothesis testing, a subsample of 55 people was administered the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) [ 18 ], the Montgomery–Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) [ 19 ], the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS) [ 20 ], the Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ) [ 21 ], and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) [ 22 ]. Discriminant validity was initially approached by comparing the RCTQ-13 scores of the following relevant patient groups: [ 1 ] with hypomanic episodes, [ 2 ] with manic episodes, 3) with manic episodes with mixed features [ 4 ] with depressive episodes, [ 5 ] with depressive episodes with mixed features, and [ 6 ] euthymic patients (in full remission).…”

“…Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) : hetero-administered questionnaire consisting of 10 statements for major depressive episode diagnosis, which focuses on cognitive, affective, and somatic aspects. It has been validated in Spanish and for Colombia [ 19 ]. Additionally, 7 degrees of severity (0-6) are considered for each item, which associate the even values (0, 2, 4, 6) to statements.…”

Background The Racing and Crowded Thoughts Questionnaire (RCTQ-13) is the most widely used specific scale for the measurement of racing thoughts, but there is currently no Spanish version that allow the evaluation in Spanish-speaking patients. The objective of this study is to translate, adapt, and validate the RCTQ-13 in a Colombian population with affective disorders. Methods The questionnaire was translated and back-translated, and corrections were implemented following a pilot test to improve comprehensibility. We included patients with Bipolar I Disorder and with Major depressive disorder seen in three centers in the city of Medellín, Colombia. We evaluate structural validity with confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability. Construct validity was also assessed with the comparison between euthymic, maniac, and depressive episodes and the correlation with worry, rumination, and mania scales. Responsiveness was measured 1 month after the first evaluation. Based on item response theory (IRT), we also estimated item difficulty, discrimination, and fit using a generalized partial credit model. Results Two hundred fifty subjects were included. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the three-factor structure of the scale was appropriate. Internal consistency was adequate for the entire scale (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.94-0.96) and for each factor. Test-retest reliability was good (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.82, 95%IC: 0.70-0.88). For construct validity, we observed differences between patients with different types of affective episodes, a moderate positive correlation with the Penn State Worry Scale (r = 0.55) and the Ruminative Response Scale (r = 0.42), and a low negative correlation with the Young Mania Rating Scale (r = − 0.10). Responsiveness was proved to be adequate. Under IRT, the response thresholds for the response options are organized for all items. The infit was adequate for all items and the outfit was acceptable. Conclusions The Spanish version of the RCTQ-13 is a reliable, valid, and responsive scale and can be used for the clinical assessment of the construct of racing and crowded thoughts in patients with the spectrum of affective disorders in whom this experience can be expressed with different nuances. Further research is needed to expand the relationship with rumination and worry.

“…A Brazilian Portuguese version of the SIGMA is not yet available 14,15,21. To the best of our knowledge, the original SIGMA has only been translated to Japanese 18,19,22,23. Given this gap in the literature, we translated and validated the original version of the SIGMA into Brazilian Portuguese, using data from participants enrolled in an ongoing clinical trial.…”

Objective:The Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) is widely used to assess depression severity. The Structured Interview Guide for the MADRS (SIGMA) was created to standardize MADRS assessment. The objective of this study was to translate and validate the original SIGMA into a Brazilian Portuguese version (SIGMA-VB).Methods:We translated and cross-culturally validated the original SIGMA into the SIGMA-VB, and assessed its psychometric properties using data from 93 adult outpatients enrolled in the Integral Assessment in Unipolar Depression (AIUNI) trial. Participants were assessed by two raters on five visits over 8 weeks. We calculated multiple interrater reliability indexes for the SIGMA-VB and used the Hamilton Depression Hating Scale (HAM-D) for validation purposes.Results:According to the SIGMA-VB, participants had moderate depression at baseline followed by mild depression at 8 weeks. We found over 90% of correlation between scores attributed by different raters using the SIGMA-VB. Correlations between the SIGMA-VB and the HAM-D were above 66%.Conclusion:Our findings confirm that the SIGMA-VB is a valid and reliable instrument to assess depression severity in clinical research and practice. Its interrater reliability was similar to that of a previously published Japanese version of the SIGMA.

“…Moreover, the results revealed a sensitivity of .81 and specificity of .85 (Paiva-Medeiros et al, 2015). The instrument has been validated in a Colombian sample presenting high internal consistency (α = .92; Cano et al, 2016). In the same study, the findings of inter-rater reliability revealed that the tool was highly reliable (r = .98; Cano et al, 2016).…”

Cognitive deficits are often present in major depressive disorder (MDD) and negatively impact functional outcomes. However, it remains challenging to assess these impairments in clinical and research settings. Smartphone applications provide the opportunity to measure cognitive impairments in an accessible way. In this study, 24 individuals with MDD and 34 healthy controls (HC) completed the Trail Making Tests (TMT), and the smartphone-based versions, named the Jewels Trail Tests (JTT).Significant positive relationships between the JTT and TMT were observed with a moderate concurrent validity for Parts A and strong concurrent validity for Parts B. The intraclass correlations showed moderate test-retest reliability for Part A of the JTT and good reliability for Part B. This study did not find significant differences between the MDD and HC groups completion time. Lastly, higher sleep quality was associated with a faster completion time on the speed processing task over a period of three months.
