Short Form of Depression Inventory: Cross-Validation
Abstract
Summary. –-The short form of the Depression Inventory was administered to a variety of patient samples totalling 431 S s. The correlation between test scores and clinicians’ ratings ranged from .55 for a hospitalized depressed sample to .67 for S s in a general medical outpatient practice. The correlation between test scores on the two forms ranged from .89 to .97. When speed of administration is an important factor, the short form can serve as a satisfactory substitute for the long form of the inventory and is especially suited for screening medical outpatients for the presence of depression.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
