Here, we provide a comprehensive psychometric assessment of the scale in 465 Mandarin-speakers who were accessing information online regarding psychotherapy. Principal component analysis and subsequent confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the SDS is one-dimensional (normed fit index = 0.976, non-normed fit index = 0.97, comparative fit index = 0.98, goodness-of-fit index = 0.967, standardized root mean-square residual = 0.023, root mean-square error of approximation = 0.149). The SDS exhibited excellent internal consistency (\u03b1 = .89) and moderate test\u2013retest reliability when readministered approximately 8 days later (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.55). Convergent validity was demonstrated by strong relationships with other measures of functional impairment (FI), while divergent validity was evidenced by fair correlation with a treatment ambivalence measure. Known-groups validity analyses showed that high FI was associated with significantly higher clinical scores of anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Regression analysis indicated that the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 score accounted for 37.6% of variance in FI. Overall, these findings support the reliability and validity of the SDS when used in Chinese treatment-seeking individuals, as well its usefulness as an online screening tool of FI.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1891\/0889-8391.34.1.58","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,9]],"date-time":"2020-01-09T17:05:49Z","timestamp":1578589549000},"page":"58-69","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["An Evaluation of the Psychometric Properties of the Sheehan Disability Scale in a Chinese Psychotherapy-Seeking Sample"],"prefix":"10.1891","volume":"34","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4244-5636","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kristina","family":"Zeljic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0920-4723","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yingying","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xian","family":"Qiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1188-7658","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xi","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4832-013X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hengfen","family":"Gong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4070-1365","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Haiyan","family":"Jin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5677-4422","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"ChenCheng","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric A","family":"Storch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"793","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamapsychiatry.2013.3947"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.2","first-page":"125","article-title":"The translation and psychometric assessment of the Persian version of the Sheehan Disability Scale","volume":"9","year":"2014","journal-title":"Iranian Journal of Psychiatry"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/1040-3590.10.2.176"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.janxdis.2006.03.014"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ridd.2014.07.009"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/\/1040-3590.6.4.284"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/NDT.S55220"},{"key":"2020010914053952000_34.1.58.8","unstructured":"Endicott, J. , Nee, J. , Harrison, W. , & Blumenthal, R.
