College students experiencing psychological distress are at risk for negative academic outcomes. The Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms-62 (CCAPS-62) is a symptom inventory designed for and widely used in college counseling centers. However, the relationships between the CCAPS-62 and functional outcomes in the college environment have not been examined. This study examined the validity of the CCAPS-62 in predicting term grade point average (GPA) and dropout. Data from 297 first-year students at a university’s counseling center were analyzed using multiple regression to determine associations between CCAPS-62 subscales, term GPA, and dropout within the subsequent three academic years. Results show that academic distress was predictive of all academic outcomes in the expected directions, social anxiety was associated with higher term GPA and retention, and hostility was associated with lower term GPA and dropout. Results demonstrated support for the instrument’s predictive validity in the identification of students at academic risk.

遭受心理困扰的大学生面临负面学术成果的风险。心理症状咨询中心评估62（CCAPS-62）是为大学咨询中心设计并广泛使用的症状清单。但是，CCAPS-62与大学环境下的功能结局之间的关系尚未得到检验。这项研究检查了CCAPS-62在预测学期平均成绩（GPA）和辍学率方面的有效性。使用多元回归分析了来自大学咨询中心的297名一年级学生的数据，以确定随后三个学年内CCAPS-62分量表，学期GPA和辍学率之间的关联。结果表明，学业困境是在预期方向上对所有学业成果的预测，社交焦虑与较高的GPA和保留率相关，而敌意与较低的GPA和辍学率相关。结果证明了该仪器在识别有学习风险的学生中的预测有效性。
