SDS抑郁自评表,原型是Zung抑郁量表(1965),美国教育卫生部推荐用于精神药理学研究的量表之一。
其特点是使用简便,并能相当直观地反映抑郁患者的主观感受。主要适用于具有抑郁症状的成年人,包括门诊及住院患者。但是对严重迟缓症状的抑郁,评定有困难。同时,SDS对于文化程度较低或智力水平稍差的人使用效果不佳。

Link: 站外链接This study introduces the development and validation of the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), which is widely used as a convenient and intuitive tool for assessing subjective feelings of depression in adults. The SDS is recommended by the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare for psychiatric research and clinical practice. However, it may have limitations in assessing severe melancholic symptoms and may be less effective for individuals with lower education levels or slightly lower intellectual capacities.
