Validity of the CBCL/YSR DSM-IV scales Anxiety Problems and Affective Problems
Abstract
Background The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and Youth Self-Report (YSR) are widely used for clinical and research purposes. Fairly recently, new 'DSM-IV scales' designated Anxiety Problems and Affective Problems were developed. Knowledge about the validity of these scales is needed.Methods In a referred sample of 277 6- to 18-year-olds, it was examined to what extent CBCL/YSR scores on the Anxiety Problems and Affective Problems scale predicted DSM-IV diagnoses of separation anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, specific phobia, major depressive disorder, or dysthymia. DSM-IV diagnoses were assessed with the Anxiety Disorders Interview Schedule for Children (ADIS-C/P).Results Scores on the CBCL and YSR Anxiety Problems scale predicted DSM-IV disorders only moderately. However, CBCL and YSR scores on the Affective Problems scale corresponded closely to DSM-IV major depressive disorder and dysthymia.Discussion Scores on the CBCL/YSR Affective Problems scale can be used to screen for DSM-IV affective disorders. The item content of the CBCL/YSR Anxiety Problems scale requires renewed attention.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
