The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) is used at workplaces to screen depressive disorders. The aim of this study was to examine the validity of the CES-D for depression in a workplace.
The CES-D was administered to 2,219 workers (84.2% men; age 21-68 years) at a manufacturing company in Japan. Concomitantly all workers had an interview with the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI) as a gold standard for diagnosing major depressive disorder (MDD). The validity was evaluated by a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
The area under the ROC curve of the CES-D was 0.96 [95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.94-0.99]. The optimal cut-off score of MDD was 19 for screening.
The validity of CES-D is confirmed and it is a valid instrument for detecting MDD in working populations in Japan.
流行病学研究中心抑郁量表(CES-D)用于工作场所筛查抑郁症。本研究旨在检验CES-D在工作场所对抑郁症的有效性。
对日本一家制造公司的2219名工人(84.2%为男性;年龄21 - 68岁)进行CES-D测试。同时,所有工人都接受了迷你国际神经精神访谈(MINI),作为诊断重度抑郁症(MDD)的金标准。通过受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线评估有效性。
CES-D的ROC曲线下面积为0.96 [95%置信区间(CI):0.94 - 0.99]。筛查MDD的最佳截断分数为19。
CES-D的有效性得到证实,它是检测日本工作人群中MDD的有效工具。
