本综述基于心理测量特性研究的荟萃分析，讨论了贝克抑郁量表（BDI）的有效性。 BDI的缺点是项目难度高，缺乏代表性规范，因此解释的客观性值得怀疑，因子有效性有争议，短时间间隔（1天内）分数不稳定，对焦虑的区分效度差。该量表的优点是其内部一致性高、内容效度高、区分抑郁和非抑郁受试者的有效性、对变化的敏感性以及国际传播。本篇文章概述了有关 BDI 的各种研究之间的一致和矛盾，并讨论了导致其结果差异的潜在因素（主题样本的组成、统计程序、测量时间点）。
The present review discusses validity aspects of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) on the basis of meta-analyses of studies on the psychometric properties. Shortcomings of the BDI are its high Item difficulty, lack of representative norms, and thus doubtful objectivity of interpretation, controversial factorial validity, instability of scores over short time intervals (over the course of 1 day), and poor discriminant validity against anxiety. Advantages of the inventory are its high internal consistency, high content validity, validity in differentiating between depressed and nondepressed subjects, sensitivity to change, and international propagation. The present gaper outlines agreements and contradictions between the various studies on the BDI and discusses the potential factors (composition of the subject sample. statistical procedures, point in time of measurement) accounting for the variance in their results.
