This psychological test is a self-rated depression scale of the Professional Psychological Test SDS (Self-Rating Depression Scale) and was designed by William WK Zung MD (1929-1992) at Duke University in the United States to evaluate depression levels. The SDS Zong Depression Self-evaluation Scale is one of the scales recommended by the U.S. Department of Education, Health and Welfare for psychopharmacological studies. Because it is easy to use and can reflect the patient’s subjective feelings of depression and its changes in treatment, it has been widely used in depression tests. SDS can reflect the subjective feelings of depressed patients and their changes in treatment quite intuitively. It is mainly suitable for adults with depression symptoms, including outpatient and hospitalized patients. It is just that it is difficult to assess depression with severe delay symptoms. At the same time, SDS is not effective for people with low education or slightly poor intelligence. It can be used for psychological counseling clinics, psychiatric outpatient clinics or inpatient psychiatric patients. It is widely used in rough screening, emotional status assessment, investigation, scientific research, etc. of outpatient patients, and cannot be used for diagnosis. There are 20 questions in this evaluation scale, which list the questions that some people may have. Before evaluating the self-evaluator, you must understand the filling method of the entire scale and the meaning of each question, and then make an independent self-evaluation that is not influenced by others. If you have some attention to your emotional state, we provide you with a free SDS self-rated depression scale test. This is a simple and commonly used scale that helps you understand the severity of your depression symptoms. Click the ‘Start Test’ button below and you will be guided to complete the self-evaluation of the SDS scale. Make sure to test it in a quiet, undisturbed environment and answer it based on what you really feel in the last two weeks. Remember that the test results are for reference only and cannot be used as a diagnostic criterion for depression. If necessary, please consult a professional mental health expert or doctor for further assistance. Click the ‘Start Test’ button now to start your self-assessment journey! It is recommended that you choose a quiet and not easily disturbed environment. You must read each item carefully, and then choose an answer that best matches your situation based on your actual feelings in the past two weeks. Don’t be scruples, you should answer based on your real experience and actual situation, don’t spend too much time thinking, you should let it go, and make judgments based on your first impression. Note: This test is for reference only and does not represent the diagnostic criteria for depression. Don’t be too nervous about the results. This test is not used as a screening criteria for depression!
