The present investigation examined the psychometric characteristics and correlates of the Children's Depression Scale (CDS) with psychiatric impatient children (n = 185; ages 7-12) and their parents (n = 154). The results revealed: high internal consistency of the CDS, significant correlations of CDS scores with other measures of depression and related constructs (hopelessness, self-esteem) and significant differences in CDS depression and positive experience scores for children independently diagnosed as meeting Research Diagnostic Criteria for depression versus other disorders. Parent CDS scores permitted finer diagnostic discriminations and revealed age and gender differences in childhood depression not evident from the children's scores.
本研究调查了儿童抑郁量表（CDS）在185名（年龄7至12岁）精神科住院儿童及其154名父母中的心理测量特征及相关因素。结果显示：CDS具有较高的内部一致性，CDS得分与其他抑郁及相关量表（无望感、自尊）显著相关，在独立诊断为符合抑郁研究诊断标准的儿童与其他疾病儿童之间，CDS抑郁得分及积极体验得分存在显著差异。父母的CDS得分有助于更精确的诊断区分，并揭示了儿童抑郁中年龄和性别差异，而这些差异在儿童自身得分中并不明显。
