Screening tools such as the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression scale (CESD) can assist with case identification; however, insufficient knowledge of their measurement properties exists to use them in the SCI population.To assess the reliability and validity of the CESD-20 and the CESD-...
Depression is common after spinal cord injury (SCI), yet it can be difficult and costly to diagnose. Screening tools such as the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression scale (CESD) can assist with case identification; however, insufficient knowled
Second, only one study relied on systematic tests of measurement invariance as implemented within confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) and this study did not consider the higher order depression structure, although it is the CES-D global scale score that is most often used in the context of ...
A binary indicator was created to identify mothers at risk of maternal depression (e.g. moderate-to-severe symptoms of depression) based on a validated cut-off score of ≥10 (Andresen et al., 1994). The CESD-10 has been validated in the Kenyan context against probable major depressive dis...
Conclusion: The findings suggest a cut-off score 27 should be used for screening of depression for Malaysian adolescents using the CESD.GhazaliDepartmentSitiDepartmentRaudzahDepartmentElklitDepartmentAskDepartmentBalangDepartmentRekayaDepartmentVincent

Participants were sorted into two groups based on their score on the Autism-Spectrum Quotient. Results indicated that the CESD-R did not demonstrate configural invariance. The DASS-21 demonstrated evidence of scalar invariance, indicating cross-group equality in factor loadings and factor intercepts. ...

We are pleased to see an additional validation of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale - Revised (CESD-R: (Eaton et al., 2004)) in the article in Psychiatry Research by Van Dam and Earleywine (Van Dam and Earleywine, 2011). We wish to make readers aware that an ...
Items number 4, 8, 12 and 16 are reverse scored and once corrected an overall score is calculated by summing the scores with higher scores suggesting greater levels of depressive symptoms. Scores of over 15 have been reported to indicate depression in the general population based on DSM III ...
