MDI

 

The Major Depression Inventory (MDI) is a brief, self-report mood questionnaire that allows clinicians to assess the presence of a depressive disorder according to DSM-IV. It is also used to assess the severity of depressive symptoms. The MDI was developed by Professor Per Bech and colleagues, in conjunction with the Psychiatric Research Unit of the WHO Collaborative Center for Mental Health.
