AIMS: To assess the validity and internal reliability of the International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ) among patients diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) and to explore the network structure of Complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) among MDD patients in China.
METHODS: Eligible individuals were recruited from a large tertiary hospital in Guangdong Province. Trained researchers conducted in-person interviews and administered self-report questionnaires, including demographics, medical information, and psychological assessments. Confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) and network analysis were performed, with calculations of Average Variance Extracted (AVE), Cronbach's α, and composite reliability.
RESULTS: A total of 113 patients with MDD participated in this study. The correlated six-factor one-order model was a good representation of the latent structure of ITQ (χ2= 60.114, df = 39, P = 0.017, SRMR = 0.070, RMSEA = 0.050, TLI = 0.952, CFI = 0.972, BIC = 175.508). All ITQ subscales possessed acceptable convergent validity and internal reliability, except for affective dysregulation and re-experiencing. The square root of AVE for affective dysregulation was lower than its correlations with other clusters. Network analysis revealed that node C4 ('I feel worthless'), as a core symptom, was significantly associated with the development of CPTSD.
CONCLUSIONS: The clinical applicability of the ITQ was demonstrated by its overall validity and reliability among patients with MDD. However, the affective dysregulation and re-experiencing clusters still need to be revised and enhanced. Timely screening, recognition, and diagnosis are critical due to the worse clinical outcomes seen in comorbid patients.
