Abstract

Background: Psychiatrists use different scales to evaluate post-Stroke Depression; however, some concerns have raised about their low specificity. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Persian version of the Post-Stroke Depression Scale (PSDS) in Iran. Materials & Methods: In this analytical cross-sectional study, 155 patients with Stroke who were referred to neurology clinics in Rasht City, Iran, were interviewed by a psychiatric assistant (Gold Standard DSM-5 interview was used to separate the depressed from the non-depressed). The participants were then assessed by the PSDS and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Moreover, a Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve with the standard Gold DSM-5 interview was used to determine the ability of the scales and to categorize Depression. Eventually, the data were analyzed in SPSS V. 19. Results: Data analysis indicates that the factor structure of HADS is one-dimensional, and exploratory and confirmatory analysis supported the fit for the one-factor model as the best fitting model. Bartlett test (The Chi-square=408. 217, df=28, P<0. 001) showed significant relationships between variables. The internal consistency of HADS was 0. 638 for Depression and 0. 617 for anxiety. The test-retest reliability is equal to for 60 subjects were randomly re-evaluated within one to two weeks, reported that r=0. 783, for anxiety and r=0. 741 for Depression. Finally, based on the ROC curve, the cut-off point of 9 was chosen, and the different severity of Depression was distinguished by 9, 14, and 20. Conclusion: The Persian version of PSDS possesses appropriate psychometric properties among the Iranian population.
