    Screening for Depression in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with the British Columbia Major Depression Inventory
    SAGE Publications ; 2002
    In:  Psychological Reports Vol. 90, No. 3_part_2 ( 2002-06), p. 1091-1096

    Abstract: Accurate identification of depression in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is particularly complicated because the vegetative symptoms of depression also reflect core features of this autoimmune disease. Self-reported symptoms in patients with SLE ( n = 103) and community control subjects ( n = 136) were examined with the British Columbia Major Depression Inventory and the Beck Depression Inventory-II. The patients with lupus obtained higher scores on most items of the former inventory. A logistic regression analysis assessed whether a subset of these items were uniquely related to group membership. Clinically significant fatigue was much more common in patients with lupus than in the control group. Two items relating to sleep disturbance also entered the equation as unique predictors. The three-variable model resulted in 85% of the control subjects and 66% of the patients being correctly classified. A subset of patients with depression, according to the Beck inventory (17 or higher), were selected ( n = 41). Their most frequently endorsed symptoms on the British Columbia Inventory were fatigue (90.2%), trouble falling asleep (70.7%), cognitive difficulty (61%), and psychomotor slowing (58.5%). Only 29.3% reported significant sadness. 15% of these subjects were classified as not depressed, 46% as possibly depressed, and 39% as probably depressed on the British Columbia Inventory. It is advisable to assess whether patients are experiencing significant sadness or loss of interest before concluding that a high score on a screening test corresponds to probable depression.

    Diagnostic Accuracy of the British Columbia Major Depression Inventory
    SAGE Publications ; 2004
    In:  Psychological Reports Vol. 95, No. 3_suppl ( 2004-12), p. 1241-1247
    Details
    In: Psychological Reports, SAGE Publications, Vol. 95, No. 3_suppl ( 2004-12), p. 1241-1247
    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the diagnostic accuracy and clinical usefulness of the British Columbia Major Depression Inventory. Participants were 62 patients with depression referred by their psychiatrist or family physician, 19 general medical outpatients with no psychiatric problems referred by their family physicians, and 49 community control subjects. Mean age for the control subjects was 50.2 yr. ( SD = 11.8), and mean education was 14.6 yr. ( SD = 2.8). Approximately 59% were women. Mean age for the patients with depression was 41.1 yr. ( SD = 12.5), and mean education was 14.6 yr. ( SD = 3.2). Approximately 71% were women. Scores of 9 or less are considered broadly normal. Applying this cut-off, the sensitivity of the test to detect depression was .92, and the specificity was .99. Thus, the test did not identify approximately 8% of the cases of depression, with 1.5% false positives. This inventory is a relatively new depression screening test patterned after the DSM–IV criteria for major depression. This study adds to a growing literature on the reliability, validity, and clinical usefulness of the test.

    Specificity of the MMPI–2 Fake Bad Scale as a Marker for Personal Injury Malingering
    SAGE Publications ; 2002
    In:  Psychological Reports Vol. 90, No. 1 ( 2002-02), p. 131-136
    Details
    In: Psychological Reports, SAGE Publications, Vol. 90, No. 1 ( 2002-02), p. 131-136
    Abstract: Psychologists who evaluate patients in medicolegal contexts should utilize objective assessment data with empirically established sensitivity and specificity for identifying negative response bias. The purpose of this study was to investigate the specificity of the Fake Bad Scale for identifying negative response bias in personal injury claimants. The cutoff scores proposed by Lees-Haley and colleagues were applied to inmate volunteers from a federal prison, medical outpatients, and patients from an inpatient substance abuse unit. Half of the inmates were given instructions to malinger psychopathology to affect the adjudication process, and the remaining inmates and all of the hospital patients were given standard instructions. The original cutoff scores correctly identified the majority of inmates instructed to malinger psychopathology, but these scores resulted in unacceptably high rates of false positive classifications. The revised cutoff scores resulted in fewer false positives, i.e., 8%–24%.

    Measuring Improvement or Decline on the WAIS–R in Inpatient Psychiatry
    SAGE Publications ; 2001
    In:  Psychological Reports Vol. 89, No. 2 ( 2001-10), p. 457-462
    Details
    In: Psychological Reports, SAGE Publications, Vol. 89, No. 2 ( 2001-10), p. 457-462
    Abstract: Psychologists in inpatient psychiatric settings sometimes are asked to assess whether patients improve or decline in intellectual functioning. The impetus for this referral question may be a perceived change in psychiatric status, an acute neuropathological event, e.g., a head injury, or a suspicion of an early dementing process. For this study, data from 100 inpatients who completed the WAIS–R on two separate admissions were used to calculate confidence bands for measurement error surrounding test-retest difference scores. The analysis indicated that, if the retest interval is three months or less, significant practice effects must be factored into the interpretation of difference scores. A table for the interpretation of difference scores at different testing intervals is provided.
