Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki



Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms-62. The CCAPS-62 is a multidimensional assessment of psychological symptoms intended for routine use in college populations[1]. The CCAPS-62 contains eight subscales (i.e., depression, generalized anxiety, social anxiety, academic distress, eating concerns, hostility, substance use, family distress) that encompass a general distress index. The national development of the CCAPS-62 was assessed with a sample of 22,060 participants. From this development, the CCAPS-62 has demonstrated acceptable reliability, with internal consistency alphas ranging from .78-.91 across subscales (depression = .91, generalized anxiety = .85, and social anxiety = .82), and test-retest reliability ranging from .78 - .92 and .76 - .91 between 1-week and 2-week test-retest correlations respectively. It also demonstrates good convergent validity, with strong and significant Pearson product-moment correlations shown between every subscale and referent measures.

The CCAPS-34 is an abbreviated version of the CCAPS-62, containing a subset of the same items but revised for more frequent administration[2]. It contains the same subscales as the CCAPS-62 except for the omission of family distress, and the substance abuse scale is relabeled as alcohol use, as the shortened version only contains questions about alcohol. The CCAPS-34 likewise indicates strong convergent validity, with strong and significant Pearson product-moment correlations between subscales with the same referent measures. The CCAPS-34 also has acceptable reliability, with internal consistency alphas ranging from .76 - .89 across subscales (depression = .89, generalized anxiety = .82, and social anxiety = .8), and test-retest reliability ranging from .79 - .87 and .74 - .86 between 1-week and 2-week test-retest correlations respectively.
