The strength and difficulties questionnaire: Scale validation with Russian adolescents
Abstract The study aimed at confirming factor structure of the Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) in a general population of Russian adolescents. The SDQ and other psychopathology measures were administered to a representative sample of 13–18‐year‐old adolescents from Arkhangelsk, Russia...
