Differences between Ghanaian (n = 465) and U.S. (n = 425) college students on the Hopkins Symptom Checklist‐25 (HSCL‐25; Mollica, Wyshak, de Marneffe, Khuon, & Lavelle, 1987) were examined. Compared with their U.S. counterparts, Ghanaians reported less general distress related to anxiety and depression, more anxiety‐specific distress, and no differences in depression‐specific distress. A multidimensional approach may be most appropriate in HSCL‐25 screening for symptoms of anxiety and depression.

测量加纳和美国大学生的焦虑和抑郁

研究了霍普金斯症状清单25（HSCL-25; Mollica，Wyshak，de Marneffe，Khuon，＆Lavelle，1987）上加纳（n = 465）和美国（n = 425）大学生之间的差异。与美国同行相比，加纳人报告的与焦虑和抑郁相关的一般困扰较少，针对焦虑的特殊困扰更多，而针对抑郁的特殊困扰没有差异。多维方法可能最适合HSCL-25筛查焦虑和抑郁症状。
