Online assessment of children's self-evaluation scale (DSRS-C)

The Depression Self-Rating Scale for Children (DSRSC) is a questionnaire survey on children’s awareness of depression and their own depression status. It contains 18 items, with a small number of items, simple and easy to evaluate, and easy to understand for children. It is suitable for children aged 8 to 13 to self-evaluate their own depression symptoms. Depressive disorder in children is a common mental health problem, referring to persistent, severe depression and negative emotional states that occur in children aged 8 to 13 years old. This condition may affect children’s emotional, behavioral, and daily functions, negatively affecting their learning, social and family life. The manifestations of depression in children can be diversified because each child may experience and express it differently. Some common manifestations include persistent depression, depression or mood swings, loss of interest in things you are usually interested in, prone to fatigue and lack of concentration, sleep problems (such as difficulty falling asleep or excessive sleep), appetite changes, inferiority complex, and negative self-evaluation. Other possible symptoms include emotional instability, irritability or emotional outbreaks, social withdrawal, concentration and learning difficulties, and thinking about death and suicide. If you find that your child may have depression, the most important thing is to seek professional help early. Parents can create open and supportive communication with their children, express their concern for them, and encourage them to share their feelings. It is crucial to seek advice and treatment from a child mental health expert who can assess the child’s symptoms and provide appropriate support and interventions. Common treatments include cognitive behavioral therapy, psychotherapy for children, and medications if necessary. At the same time, support from the family and school environment is also an important factor in helping children overcome depression. Parents and educators can provide stable support and care, work closely with professionals, help children build positive emotional management skills, and encourage them to engage in healthy activities and social interactions.
