We tested the longitudinal measurement invariance of the DASS-21 across two time points on a sample of 312 Filipino adolescents. The confirmatory factor analysis indicated adequate fit between the hypothesized three-factor solution and the data from the adolescent sample. The DASS-21 also exhibited strict longitudinal invariance, and the subscales also displayed adequate reliability in the two time points. The results are the first demonstration of longitudinal invariance with a Filipino sample and provide evidence that DASS-21 can be useful in both screening and in monitoring severity of different categories of symptoms over time, particularly among school-based Filipino youth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"taxonomy-post_tag wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=anxiety\" rel=\"tag\">anxiety<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=confirmatory-factor-analysis\" rel=\"tag\">confirmatory factor analysis<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=depression\" rel=\"tag\">Depression<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=longitudinal-measurement-invariance\" rel=\"tag\">longitudinal measurement invariance<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=reliability\" rel=\"tag\">reliability<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=stress\" rel=\"tag\">stress<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\"  class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2022_Simon-and-Bernardo-1.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Embed of 2022_Simon-and-Bernardo..\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-ce839989-a8f4-48cd-bc7d-e8b514921b26\" href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2022_Simon-and-Bernardo-1.pdf\">2022_Simon-and-Bernardo<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/2022_Simon-and-Bernardo-1.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-ce839989-a8f4-48cd-bc7d-e8b514921b26\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patricia D.
