Abstract: The inventory to Diagnose Depression (IDD; Zimmerman, Coryell, Corenthal, & Wilson, 1986) was designed to assess both the diagnosis of major depressive episode and the severity of depressive symptoms. When used with a college population, the IDD was a stable and internally consistent measure of depressive symptomatology. IDD total scores correlated significantly with other commonly used depression inventories, and a principal-components analysis revealed a general depression factor associated with IDD responses. Last, the IDD yield diagnoses of major depressive episode that compared favorably with interview-derived diagnoses, and preliminary normative data for the IDD in a population of college students are reported.
