一个操作定义的抑郁症是用来定义一组青春期前儿童出席医院为基础的门诊儿童精神病学诊所。通过与对照组的历史和临床资料比较，证实了儿童期抑郁症的结构效度。通过确定初始清单的哪些项目区分了临床对照组和正常学校和适应不良学生寄宿学校的抑郁组，从而形成了自评量表。最终的自评量表需在独立抑郁组上进一步验证，但具有较高的内部一致性、析因效度和令人满意的稳定性。讨论了该量表的可能应用。
An operational definition of depressive disorder was used to define a group of prepubertal children attending a hospital-based out-patient child psychiatry clinic. The construct validity of depressive disorder in childhood was demonstrated by comparing this group with a matched control group on historical and clinical data. A self-rating scale was evolved by determining which items of an initial inventory discriminated the depressed groups from the clinic control group and comparison groups from a normal school and from a residential school for maladjusted pupils. The final self-rating scale requires further validation on an independent depressed group but it had high internal consistency, factorial validity and satisfactory stability. Possible applications of the scale are discussed.
