This article presents a summary of self-report adult measures that are considered to be most relevant for the assessment of depression in the context of rheumatology clinical and/or research practice. This piece represents an update of the special issue article that appeared in Arthritis Care & Research in 2003; the current review followed similar selection criteria for inclusion of assessment tools. Specifically, measures were selected based on several considerations, including ease of administration, interpretation, and adoption by arthritis health professionals from varying backgrounds and training perspectives; self-report measures providing data from the patient or research participant’s perspective; availability of adequate psychometric literature and data involving rheumatology populations; and frequent use in both clinical and research practice with adult rheumatology populations. This study was not intended to be exhaustive. Clinicianadministered, semistructured depression interviews requiring specialized training such as the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression and Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition were not included. Additionally, measures without sufficient use within rheumatology populations, such as the World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview depression module and the National Institutes of Health Patient-Reported Outcomes
