Geriatric Depression Scale Answer: The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) is a self-
report measure of depression in older adults. Users respond in a "Yes/No" format.
The GDS was originally developed as a 30-item instrument. Since this version
proved both time-consuming and difficult for some patients to complete, a 15-item
version was developed. The shortened form (GDS-S) is comprised of 15 items
chosen from the Geriatric Depression Scale-Long Form (GDS-L). These 15 items
were chosen because of their high correlation with depressive symptoms in previous
validation studies

Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS): Indication for Intervention Answer: The presence
of depression warrants prompt intervention and treatment. The GDS may be used to

psychological assessment and evaluation for suicidality.

questionnaire used as a screening tool to assess severity of depression; widely used
by health care providers, in validity is well established, particularly for identifying

use in the general population and is now used as a screener for depression in

dimensions of depression experienced in the past week.


The CES-D can be used for children as young as 6 and through older adulthood. It
has been tested across gender and cultural populations and maintains consistent
validity and reliability. The scale takes about 20 minutes to administer, including
scoring.
