Annotation | A cross-sectional study was conducted to examine the reliability and utility of the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) among a community sample of 131 Japanese American elders. The GDS evidenced high internal consistency and reliability. The findings suggest that the GDS may be reliable for use in screening depression in Japanese American elders. (KJ/RH). |
