Measures of depression are increasingly being used as outcomes or predictors by organizational and consumer psychologists. One such measure is the automatic thoughts questionnaire (ATQ). However, question about the 30 - item ATQ's factor structure and its lengths for use in survey research remain. The authors offer 15- and 8- item shortened versions of the ATQ. Two samples (N = 43 and n = 419) were used to derive the reduced versions. A single factor was found to underlie both reduced versions, with scores on this factor yielding strong estimates of internal consistency and nomological validity. Two more cross - validation sampels (n = 163 and n = 91) also showed support for the 15- and 8- item versions. Overall, results suggest that these reduced - item versions of the ATQ are useful alternatives to measuring cognitions associated with depression.
