The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), with its three forms (youth, parent and teacher version), is widely used to assess emotional and behavioural disorders in children and adolescents. The present study examined the factor structure and psychometric properties of the teacher version of the scale (SDQ-T) with adolescents from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) background. It also explored the impact of demographic factors on the mental health outcomes of CALD adolescents in the school setting as indicated by SDQ-T. Teachers from a Special English language transitional school in Brisbane, Australia completed the SDQ-T for 175 culturally and linguistically diverse adolescents. The exploratory factor analysis indicated a 23-item scale with a four-factor structure: Prosocial Behaviour, Hyperactivity, Emotional Symptoms, and Behavioural Problems. The revised scale had sound internal consistency. Findings indicated that CALD adolescents from refugee backgrounds scored higher on Emotional Symptoms, Conduct and Peer Problems, and SDQ total difficulties. There were no differences on subscale scores based on gender or English language proficiency. SDQ-T emerged as a promising scale that can be used to understand CALD adolescents’ postmigration emotional experiences, risks and protective factors. The implications of the SDQ-T in schools with adolescents from migrant and refugee backgrounds are discussed.

优势和困难问卷-教师:调查其因素结构和效用与文化和语言多样化的学生

优势和困难问卷 (SDQ) 具有三种形式(青少年版、家长版和教师版),广泛用于评估儿童和青少年的情绪和行为障碍。本研究调查了来自不同文化和语言(CALD)背景的青少年的教师版量表(SDQ-T)的因子结构和心理测量特性。如 SDQ-T 所示,它还探讨了人口因素对学校环境中 CALD 青少年心理健康结果的影响。澳大利亚布里斯班一所特殊英语语言过渡学校的教师为 175 名文化和语言多样化的青少年完成了 SDQ-T。探索性因素分析显示了一个 23 项量表,具有四因素结构:亲社会行为、多动、情绪症状、和行为问题。修订后的量表具有良好的内部一致性。调查结果表明,来自难民背景的 CALD 青少年在情绪症状、行为和同伴问题以及 SDQ 总困难方面得分较高。基于性别或英语语言能力的分量表分数没有差异。SDQ-T 成为一个很有前途的量表,可用于了解 CALD 青少年的迁移后情绪体验、风险和保护因素。讨论了 SDQ-T 在有来自移民和难民背景的青少年的学校中的影响。基于性别或英语语言能力的分量表分数没有差异。SDQ-T 成为一个很有前途的量表,可用于了解 CALD 青少年的迁移后情绪体验、风险和保护因素。讨论了 SDQ-T 在有来自移民和难民背景的青少年的学校中的影响。基于性别或英语语言能力的分量表分数没有差异。SDQ-T 成为一个很有前途的量表,可用于了解 CALD 青少年的迁移后情绪体验、风险和保护因素。讨论了 SDQ-T 在有来自移民和难民背景的青少年的学校中的影响。
