The aim of the present study was therefore to apply the Farsi version of the Hypomania-Check-List 32 HCL-32 and to explore its factorial structure. Methods A total of 163 Iranian out-patients took part in the study 61 suffered from Major Depressive Disorder MDD and 102 suffered from Bipolar Disorders BP . Participants completed the Mood Disorder Questionnaire MDQ and the Hypomania Checklist HCL-32 . Exploratory factor analyses were used to examine the properties of the HCL-32. A ROC-curve analysis was performed to calculate sensitivity and specificity. Results The HCL-32 differentiated between patients with MDD and with BP. Psychometric properties were satisfactory sensitivity 73 specificity 91 . MDQ and HCL-32 did correlate highly. No differences were found between patients suffering from BP I and BP II. Discussion Instead of the two-factorial structure of the HCL-32 reported previously the present pattern of factorial results suggest a distinction between four factors two broadly positive dimensions of hypomania physically and mentally active positive social interactions and two rather negative dimensions risky behavior and substance use difficulties in social interaction and impatience . Conclusion The Farsi version of the HCL-32 proved to be applicable and therefore easy to introduce within a clinical context. The pattern of results suggests a four factorial solution. Background There is evidence that bipolar disorders have .
