RESUMO
The current study presents the psychometric investigation of the Georgian version of the Cognitive Distortion Scale (G-CDS) (Covin et al., 2011). The Cognitive Distortion Scale measures the 10 cognitive distortions in interpersonal and achievement domains. Altogether 941 individuals, across seven samples (37 clinical participants amongst them) participated in the standardization of the instrument. Confirmatory factory analysis demonstrated good model fit with a 10-factor solution. The G-CDS exhibited acceptable internal reliability and correlated in expected directions with other clinically relevant inventories. Although women scored higher than men on one factor (Should Statements) there were no other gender differences. There were significant differences in all cognitive distortions scores between clinical and control group. Given its respectable psychometric properties, the G-CDS appears to have a high degree of both clinical and research potential.
