In the version of this article initially published, Henn, C., & Morgan, B. (2019). Differential item functioning of the CESDR-R and GAD-7 in African and white working adults. SA Journal of Industrial Psychology/SA Tydskrif vir Bedryfsielkunde, 45(0), a1663. https://doi.org/10.4102/sajip.v45i0.1663 the title of the manuscript has been incorrectly published as ‘Differential item functioning of the CESDR-R and GAD-7 in African and white working adults’. The correct title wording is ‘Differential item functioning of the CESD-R and GAD-7 in African and white working adults’.

On page 5 of the article, Table 1 is incorrectly displayed without the confidence intervals for the alpha and parameter estimates for the omega columns.

The correct table is presented below:

Descriptive statistics and reliability coefficients for the Centre for Epidemiological Depression Scale Revised and Generalised Anxiety Disorder 7 scale scores across African and white participants.

Participants Mean Mdn. SD Skew. Kurt. SE α Confidence intervals ω Parameter estimates β
CESD-R African 15.37 11.00 14.33 1.27 1.17 0.82 0.94 0.92, 0.95 0.94 0.92, 0.95 0.69
CESD-R white 14.04 10.00 14.29 1.87 3.90 0.92 0.95 0.93, 0.96 0.95 0.93, 0.96 0.80
GAD-7 African 5.91 4.00 5.34 0.89 −0.09 0.31 0.91 0.89, 0.93 0.91 0.89, 0.93 0.86

Note: 95% bootstrapped confidence intervals for coefficient α and ω. CESD-R African: n = 307; CESD-R white: n = 244; GAD-7 African: n = 304; GAD-7 white: n = 225.

CESD-R, Centre for Epidemiological Depression Scale Revised; GAD-7, Generalised Anxiety Disorder 7-Item Scale; SD, standard deviation; SE, standard error; Mdn., median; Skew., skewness; Kurt., kurtosis; β, Revelle’s coefficient beta.
