Diagnostic criteria in childhood depression
E Poznanski, HB Mokros, J Grossman and LN Freeman
Comparison of diagnoses of childhood depression from four sets of criteria
(i.e., Research Diagnostic Criteria, DSM-III, and those of Poznanski and
Weinberg) used with 65 children referred to a psychiatric clinic showed
complete agreement in 56 (86%) of the cases. The major disagreement
resulted from differences between the clinician's rating of dysphoria based
on the child's nonverbal behavior and the child's and parent's verbal
report of no dysphoria. Analyses of the essential symptoms of depression
among the four criteria sets indicated that the nonverbal rating was most
strongly associated with a diagnosis of depression and the best predictor
of the severity of depression.
