| مستخلص: | Background: In clinical settings, there is significant need for brief, easily-administered assessment tools for adolescent depression that can be used by mental health clinicians from a variety of training backgrounds. Existing depression screening tools do not assess for duration and consistency of symptoms, two key indicators of pathological depression. Objective: The Brief Adolescent Depression Screen (BADS) was developed to screen for major and persistent depressive disorders in adolescents in order to meet the assessment needs in an inpatient setting, and the validity of this tool was tested. Method: The current study used a sample of 396 inpatient adolescents to assess the screening utility of the BADS for detecting whether the adolescent meets criteria for a depressive diagnosis according to a well-validated semi-structured interview, as well as detecting a positive history of suicidal behavior. Further, the screening utility of this measure was compared to the utility of an established depression rating scale. Results: Analyses first determined the duration of depressive symptoms on the BADS that optimally screened for the presence of Major Depressive Disorder and Persistent Depressive Disorder. Findings indicated that, using these optimal screening cut-offs, the BADS showed a strong screening utility, resulting in a sensitivity and specificity for identifying full depressive diagnoses and a positive history of suicidal behavior with similar or greater accuracy than an established rating scale. Conclusions: These findings provide initial evidence to suggest that the BADS may be a helpful screening tool for adolescent depressive disorders in inpatient settings. |
