Evaluating Psychological Factors in Patients

The basic characteristics of participants were collected through the case report form (CRF), including demographic data, past medical history and accompanying diseases, and clinical information about existing mental disorders. In addition to the CRF, the following measures were administered. We evaluated the internal personal characteristics of patients through the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEOFFI) and the Chinese Internet Addiction Scale’s revision (CIAS-R). The external environmental characteristics were evaluated by the Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Check List (ASLEC), the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), the Family Assessment Device (FAD) and the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS).
