Rasch analysis of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) for use in motor neurone disease
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is commonly used to assess symptoms of anxiety and depression in motor neurone disease (MND). The measure has never been specifically validated for use within this population, despite questions raised about the scale's validity. This study seeks to analyse the construct validity of the HADS in MND by fitting its data to the Rasch model. METHODS: The scale was administered to 298 patients with MND. Scale assessment included model fit, differential item functioning (DIF), unidimensionality, local dependency and category threshold analysis. RESULTS: Rasch analyses were carried out on the HADS total score as well as depression and anxiety subscales (HADS-T, D and A respectively). After removing one item from both of the seven item scales, it was possible to produce modified HADS-A and HADS-D scales which fit the Rasch model. An 11-item higher-order HADS-T total scale was found to fit the Rasch model following the removal of one further item. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that a modified HADS-A and HADS-D are unidimensional, free of DIF and have good fit to the Rasch model in this population. As such they are suitable for use in MND clinics or research. The use of the modified HADS-T as a higher-order measure of psychological distress was supported by our data. Revised cut-off points are given for the modified HADS-A and HADS-D subscales.

For the purpose of analysis, a subset of HADS data will be analysed which omits one item on the depression scale that assesses psychomotor retardation and one item on the anxiety scale that assesses restlessness as these overlap with physical symptoms of MND.
“For the purpose of analysis and, following validation in plwMND and subsequent published recommendations [51], a subset of data will be analysed which omits one item on the depression scale that assesses psychomotor retardation and one item on the anxiety scale that assesses restlessness as these overlap with physical symptoms of MND”

Depression questionnaires (BDI and HADS) tend to overestimate depression in ALS because scores are influenced by physical impairment.
“there is recent evidence suggesting that depression questionnaires, specifically the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) [53] and to a lesser degree the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) [54], tend to overestimate depression in ALS, since these scores are highly influenced by the physical impairment of the patients [55, 56].”

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.
