Usability of Ordinal Logistic Regression Analysis for Beck Depression Inventory

Öz

Objective: In the study; For the Beck Depression Scale, the usability of the Ordinal logistic regression model was evaluated, taking into account the situation in which this scale was ordinal. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in the first and second-year students of the ……. University, Health Services Vocational School. A total of 664 volunteer students who accepted to participate in the study were included in the study, and no sample was taken from the population. The students were asked 8 questions including socio-demographic characteristics, as well as questions of the 21-item Beck Depression Scale. Depression status with 4 order categories (Normal-Mild-Moderate-Severe) was taken as the dependent variable in the study, and the relationship of other socio-demographic variables with the depression status variable was examined. Results: In the study, Nagelkerke pseudo R2 value, one of the goodness of fit criteria, was found to be 0.062. In addition, the model fit criterion -2LL (Log-likelihood) test statistic (p<0.05) was found significant. Conclusion: As a result, the usability of ordered logistic regression analysis in determining the relationships between the variables and depression was emphasized.

Beck Depresyon Ölçeği İçin Sıralı Lojistik Regresyon Analizinin Kullanılabilirliği

Öz

Amaç: Çalışmada; Beck Depresyon Ölçeği için, bu ölçeğin ordinal olduğu durum dikkate alınarak Ordinal lojistik regresyon modelinin kullanılabilirliği değerlendirilmiştir. Materyal ve Metod: Çalışma, …. Üniversitesi Sağlık Hizmetleri Meslek Yüksekokulu birinci ve ikinci sınıf öğrencileri ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden toplam 664 gönüllü öğrenci çalışmaya dahil edilmiş, evrenden örneklem alınmamıştır. Öğrencilere sosyo-demografik özellikleri içeren 8 sorunun yanı sıra 21 maddelik Beck Depresyon Ölçeği soruları sorulmuştur. Çalışmada bağımlı değişken olarak 4 sıra kategorili (Normal-Hafif-Orta-Şiddetli) depresyon durumu alınmış ve diğer sosyo-demografik değişkenlerin depresyon durumu değişkeni ile ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmada uyum iyiliği ölçütlerinden Nagelkerke yalancı R2 değeri 0.062 olarak bulunmuştur. Ayrıca model uyum kriteri -2LL (Log-likelihood) test istatistiği (p<0.05) anlamlı bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, değişkenler ile depresyon arasındaki ilişkilerin belirlenmesinde sıralı lojistik regresyon analizinin kullanılabilirliği vurgulanmıştır.
