流行病学研究中心儿童抑郁量表（CES-DC）是一份由20个项目组成的自我报告抑郁量表，得分范围从0到60。每个响应条目得分如下:0 =“不”1 =“有点”2 =“一些”3 =“很多”然而,项目4、8、12和16是措辞积极,因此在相反的顺序:3 =“不”2 =“有点”1 =“一些”0 =“很多”更高的CES-DC分数表明抑郁程度的增加。Weissman等人（1980）是CES-DC的开发者，他们使用15分作为儿童和青少年抑郁症状的提示。也就是说，分数超过15分可能表明抑郁症状的严重程度。请记住，抑郁症的筛查可能很复杂，而且只是第一步。需要对通过筛选过程确定的儿童和青少年进行进一步评价。对于表现出抑郁症状但筛查结果未呈阳性的儿童或青少年，也有必要进行进一步的评估。
The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC) is a 20-item self-report depression inventory with possible scores ranging from 0 to 60. Each response to an item is scored as follows: 0 = " Not At All " 1 = " A Little " 2 = " Some " 3 = " A Lot " However, items 4, 8, 12, and 16 are phrased positively, and thus are scored in the opposite order: 3 = " Not At All " 2 = " A Little " 1 = " Some " 0 = " A Lot " Higher CES-DC scores indicate increasing levels of depression. Weissman et al. (1980), the developers of the CES-DC, have used the cutoff score of 15 as being suggestive of depressive symptoms in children and adolescents. That is, scores over 15 can be indicative of significant levels of depressive symptoms. Remember that screening for depression can be complex and is only an initial step. Further evaluation is required for children and adolescents identified through a screening process. Further evaluation is also warranted for children or adolescents who exhibit depressive symptoms but who do not screen positive.
