Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to assess the RELIABILITY and VALIDITY of the DEPRESSION-HAPPINESS SCALE (H-PS) in staff of lsfahan justice.Methods and Materials: 200 subjects (134 male, 66 female) with a mean age of 33/7(ranged from 21 to 56) and standard deviation 10/6 were chosen among 900 staff of ISFAHAN's court. Their literacy level ranged from diploma to MS. All subjects completed the Depression- Happiness Scale (D-HS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Oxford Happiness Inventory (OHI) in one session.Results: The study of internal consistency of D-HS showed that all items have high correlation with total scores, the Cronbach alpha was 0/93 and test-retest RELIABILITY after two months was 0/72. D-HS was highly correlated with OHI and BDI. The factor analysis revealed 5 factors with an eigenvalue greater than 1, which could explain 5711% of the total variance.But because first factor with an eigenvalue 10/72 accounted for most (42/91 %) of the variance, a one-factor model was specified.Conclusion: DEPRESSION-HAPPINESS SCALE is a reliable and valid test for measuring happiness in Iranian population.
