Three scales about childhood trauma, traumatic experiences and bullying: Greek translation, test-retest reliability.
Psychiatrike = Psychiatriki(2022)
Abstract
Exposure to traumatic life events is one of the most robust predictors for psychosis. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form (CTQ-SF), a version of Childhood Experience of Care and Abuse (CECAEUGEI) and a version of the Bullying Questionnaire (BQEUGEI) refer to early life adversities, traumatic episodes and bullying. Those scales belong to a battery of psychometric tools detecting environmental and genetic factors associated with First Episode Psychosis (FEP) that was employed in the Athens-FEP study. The goal of this paper is to present those three versions, regarding their content, their use in the international research, their translation in Greek and their test-retest reliability. The three questionnaires were translated by two independent translators, administered twice to 32 subjects with FEP, with a three weeks intermediate period. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were used to investigate agreement between scores of the first and second administration. There was a statistically significant agreement for all measurements of the three questionnaires. Cronbach's a were also calculated and were acceptable and over 0.7. Our study is an indication that the translated versions are reliable, although a more thorough test of their psychometric properties is needed. Both might be used in the Greek research field as part of a broad package of psychometric tools, specifically addressed to patients with FEP.
