Validierung eines deutschsprachigen DSM-IV-TR basierten Fragebogens zum prämenstruellen Syndrom

Published Online:October 21, 2011https://doi.org/10.1026/1616-3443/a000095

Abstract

Zusammenfassung.Theoretischer Hintergrund: Prämenstruelle Symptome und das Prämenstruelle Syndrom (PMS) werden häufig berichtet, sind allerdings schwer von somatoformen oder affektiven Beschwerden abzugrenzen. Methode: Basierend auf den DSM-IV-TR Kriterien für PMDD wurde ein deutschsprachiger Fragebogen zur Erfassung von PMS entworfen. 300 Frauen (Alter = 26 Jahre, SD = 5,33) füllten diesen Fragebogen, das Screening für Somatoforme Störungen und die Allgemeine Depressionsskala online aus, 101 davon messwiederholt. Die Gütekriterien wurden mittels exploratorischer und konfirmatorischer Faktorenanalysen sowie Korrelationen und ANOVAs bestimmt. Ergebnisse: Die Datenanalysen weisen auf die Validität und einen angemessenen Modellfit für den PMS-Fragebogen hin. PMS-Werte unterscheiden sich durch signifikant höhere Werte während der Lutealphase von somatoformen Beschwerden und Depressivität. Schlussfolgerungen: Der PMS-Fragebogen ist ein valides Erhebungsinstrument und bestätigt die zyklusabhängigen Charakteristika dieses Störungsbildes.


A German DSM-IV-TR-based questionnaire for the screening of premenstrual symptoms

Abstract.Background: In this study, we designed a German inventory aimed at quantifying menstrual cycle dependent symptoms and the premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Methods: The German PMS inventory was designed based on the DSM-IV-TR criteria for the Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) and was presented online to 300 women (N = 101, repeatedly), along with screenings for somatoform and depressive symptoms. Results: Analyses suggest a good model fit for the factorial structure of the PMS inventory. PMS scores showed an increase during the luteal phase which was not found in somatic or depressive symptoms. Conclusion: The German PMS inventory is a valid tool to assess premenstrual symptoms and confirms the menstrual cycle dependent pattern of these symptoms in women.
