Evidence for Measurement Invariance and Psychometric Reliability for Scores on the PHQ-4 From a Rural and Predominately Hispanic Community

Abstract

The factor structure, measurement invariance, and internal consistency of the Patient Health Questionnaire for Depression and Anxiety (PHQ-4) was examined with a rural, predominately Hispanic sample (N = 711). Findings supported use of a one-factor model across gender, age groups, and Spanish-speaking groups. Counseling practice and research implications are discussed.
