SummaryPurposeDepressive disorders (DD) in adolescence are often misdiagnosed and under-recognised. A major clinical problem regards the high rate of co-morbidity with other disorders, namely substance abuse. The aim of this study was to assess the discriminative power of the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) to characterise specific social–demographic variables related to DD in adolescence.MethodsA Portuguese version of the BDI-II and a social–demographic questionnaire were administered to 775 Portuguese adolescents (312 males, 463 females; mean age: 16.9 years); 83 adolescents performed a clinical interview following DSM-IV criteria.ResultsMean BDI-II Portuguese version (BDI-II-P) total score was 10.31 (standard deviation: 8.4), with females reporting more depressive symptoms than males (P < 0.001). Low academic achievement, sleep disturbances, and alcohol consumption were consistently associated with depressive symptoms for both genders. Higher tobacco consumption was significantly associated with depressive symptoms in females. Familial factors did not appear to be associated with depressive symptoms in males. However, a higher frequency of siblings, having separated parents as well as a more extreme perception of the mother's educational style were consistently associated with depressive symptoms in females.ConclusionThe BDI-II-P showed discriminative power to characterise social–demographic variables related to DD especially in adolescent females.

WstępPrzewlekły stres wpływa na jakość snu oraz wywołuje symptomy depresji u osób aktywnych zawodowo. Posługa kapłańska, ze względu na swą specyfikę, może generować przewlekły stres, wpływać na jakość snu i wywoływać depresję. Celem pracy jest analiza obciążeń zawodowych księży katolickich, ocena jakości snu i rozpowszechnienia zaburzeń depresyjnych w tej grupie oraz wyodrębnienie czynników mających wpływ na ich występowanie u duchownych.Materiał i metodyZbadano 223 księży diecezjalnych i zakonnych Archidiecezji Katowickiej. W badaniu zastosowano autorski, poddany walidacji kwestionariusz, skalę depresji Becka (Beck Depression Inventory – BDI-II) oraz Skalę Jakości Snu (SJS).WynikiCzynnikami wywołującymi najsilniejszy stres u badanych księży były relacje z przełożonymi (68,2%) oraz zmiana parafii (66,8%). Najczęstszym z subiektywnie odczuwanych przez respondentów negatywnych stanów podczas całej dotychczasowej służby kapłańskiej było przemęczenie (92,4%). W badanej grupie u 20,2% księży występowała pogorszona jakość snu, a zaburzenia depresyjne o różnym stopniu nasilenia wykazano u 27,4% badanych. Wykazano zależność jakości snu oraz depresji od nasilenia stresu związanego ze zmianą parafii, relacjami z przełożonymi, celibatem oraz życiem w pojedynkę.WnioskiKsięża niechętnie poddają się badaniu kwestionariuszowemu dotyczącemu stanu zdrowia psychicznego, jednocześnie stanowią grupę wysokiego ryzyka występowania zaburzeń snu i zaburzeń depresyjnych. Im niższa była jakość snu, tym wyższe wskaźniki zaburzeń depresyjnych. Perfekcjonizm, nadmierne zaangażowanie, poczucie niezrozumienia, potrzeba uznania i wysoka wrażliwość interpersonalna sprzyjały nasileniu symptomów depresji w badanej grupie.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the point prevalence of depressive disorders in medical inpatients, to identify related sociodemographic and medical factors and to evaluate the psychotropic treatment given. METHOD: A cross-sectional study identifying the prevalence of depressive disorders and related factors combined with a prospective longitudinal study evaluating the psychopharmacological treatment were conducted. Medical inpatients, aged 18 years or older, presenting suitability to be interviewed and giving written informed consent were selected. The sample was composed of 125 subjects. The following instruments were used: a sociodemographic questionnaire; the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview; and the Beck Depression Inventory. Data related to medical, personal and family histories of psychiatric disorders and psychotropic use were collected by interview and from patient charts. The study took place at the Hospital Santa Isabel, in Blumenau, located in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil, from January to July of 2002. RESULTS: The prevalence of depressive disorders was 26%. The factors that correlated with depressive disorders were being female, having an income lower than 3 times the minimum wage, having a personal history of depressive disorders, using psychotropic drugs, scoring higher than 13 on the Beck Depression Inventory and having been referred for a psychiatric consultation (p < 0.05). Only 43.8% of the individuals with depressive disorders received antidepressants. Most of the depressed patients were being treated with benzodiazepines (62.5%). The most frequently prescribed drugs were diazepam and fluoxetine. CONCLUSIONS: Approximately one-quarter of the medical inpatients had depressive disorders. However, antidepressants were prescribed for less than half of them. Women with a history of depression, using benzodiazepines and having a low income presented significantly higher rates of depressive disorders. Physicians should suspect depression in patients presenting such characteristics.

The Beck Depression Inventory-II, published in 1996, was administered to 100 adult outpatients (Age M = 43.1 yr., SD = 15.6) who were diagnosed with a recurrent-episode Major Depressive Disorder and 100 outpatients (Age M = 42.8 yr., SD = 15.7) who were diagnosed with a Dysthymic Disorder. Each diagnostic group was composed of 50 men and 50 women who did not have a comorbid depressive disorder. The mean Beck Depression Inventory-II total score and the mean number of symptoms endorsed by the outpatients with a Major Depressive Disorder were significantly (ps < .001) higher than those for outpatients with a Dysthymic Disorder. The usefulness of the Beck Depression Inventory–II was discussed in helping clinicians discriminate between these two unipolar disorders.

Abstract: Depression is one of the major mental health problems today. WHO predicts that in 2020 depression will be the second highest cause of death after heart attack. Generally, the cause of depression is divided into three factors, inter alia biological factors. The Learned helplessness theory explains the causes of depression and defines that depression occurs because of painful events that cannot be controlled by someone. Painful events also can be caused by natural disasters, one of them was flood. This was a descriptive qualitative study with a cross-sectional design by using a sociodemographic questionnaire and be assessed by using the Beck Depression Inventory questionnaire. The results showed that there were 3 respondents (10%) without depression; 8 respondents (26.7%) with mild depressive disorders; 15 respondets (50%) with moderate depressive disorders; and 4 respondents (13.3%) with major depressive disorders.Keywords: depression, flood victims, Beck Depression Inventory.Abstrak: Depresi merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan mental utama saat ini, WHO memprediksikan bahwa pada tahun 2020 nanti depresi akan menjadi penyebab kedua terbesar kematian setelah serangan jantung.

Background:Although depressive disorders are common conditions in primary health care service, and many depressed patients consult their general practitioners, GPs have some difficulties in the detection and correct diagnosis of depression. Unrecognized and untreated depression causes great health and economic burden and also contributes to significant suffering, therefore the correct recognition of affective disorder in GP settings is an important healthcare target. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of depressive disorders in general practices in Hungary and also to assess the sensitivity and specificity of different depression screening instruments.Method:In the present study the current prevalence of DSM-IV depressive disorders were surveyed among 984 primary care attendees in 6 GP practices in Hungary, using the Beck Depression Inventory and the PRIME-MD screening instrument.Results:The current prevalence rate of any PRIME-MD DSM-IV depressive disorders, including symptomatic major depressive episode, were 18.5% and 7.3% respectively. Beck Depression Inventory identified any current depressive disorders with 95% sensitivity and 56% specificity and the same figures for current symptomatic major depressive episode were 83% and 23%, respectively.Discussion:Our results are similar to those reported previously from Hungary and from other countries. The findings also indicate that the Beck Depression Inventory and PRIME-MD can help in detecting depressive disorders in primary care.
