Is the Self Rated Depression Scale SDS authoritative and accurate?

According to the Chinese norm interpretation, the cut-off value of SDS standard score is 53 points. A score of 72 or more is considered major depression. However, the score of the depression self-rating scale can only be used as a reference standard, not an absolute standard, and it is also based on clinical symptoms.

You should refer to the guidance of a professional doctor, as for the medicine, don't take it by yourself, because there are different degrees of ***, don't worry too much, it's okay...

The SDS Depression Self-Rating Scale can objectively assess your degree of depression, and the SDS Depression Self-Rating Scale examines your psychological state in the last week, so the same person, different periods of the test, the results will change, and the curve of this change can reflect the changes in your depression.

Therefore, patients with depression can also use this scale to evaluate the efficacy of ** after a period of time.

The SDS Depression Self-Rating Scale has a total of 20 items, and the sum of the scores of the 20 items is equal to the total coarse score, and then the total coarse score is multiplied to take the integer part of the score as the standard score.

The upper limit of the coarse score is 41 points, and the cut-off value of the standard score is 53 points.

Is the ZUNG Depression Self-Rating Scale (SDS) valuable?

Now all the psychological scales used in clinical practice are formulated by combining a lot of people with relevant symptoms, with a certain degree of credibility, if the patient with mental illness (the visitor) writes his feelings truthfully according to the requirements, the result has reference significance, if the client does not fill in according to his true feelings, the result will be biased, and if the reference is easy to cause misdiagnosis. If the client also wants to fill in carefully, but he can't tell which range his status should be, the authenticity of the scale will be greatly reduced, so the scale can only be used as a reference, and does not need to be used as a basis for diagnosis.

It can be responsibly said to be informative, limited to testing the emotional state of the recent or a week or so. Based on my research project, which is the experience of using this form in the past 10 years of physical examination, two-thirds of the depressed people tested are accompanied by anxiety.

If it is a self-test without the guidance of a doctor, the reference value is limited, and it often cannot reflect the whole of mental and psychological problems, but it also has a certain reference value.

Then, if you think it is necessary to diagnose and want to **, go to the psychology department of a regular hospital, and you will also go through this test link, and the doctor will combine the test results and the consultation to determine whether you are mentally depressed, and the severity of the depression, and propose drugs and other ** methods, you need to tell the doctor all your feelings, don't hide it. Hope you come out of the darkness soon!

It is indicative, but it is also for reference only. It just indicates your current state of mind.

Valuable, but not all, everyone's depression will be different, but in general, there is still reference value for not being interested in everything, losing motivation, etc.

For reference, it's best to listen to what the doctor has to say.

It is a reference for doctors. Can be used to assess severity and efficacy.
