Abstract

In this work, a first study of the CDI (KOVACS 1980, 1981) psychometriccharacteristics has been made on a Catalan version. This widely acknowledged scale for children depression symptoms rating as well as screening technique has been used in a lot of research out of our linguistic environment (SAYLOR, FINCH et al., 1984-1985; CYTRYN, MCKNEW and BUNNEY, 1980; LEFKOWITZ and TESINY, 1980). We thought it was necessary to enrich the clinic assessment with an instrument that took into account the linguistic variables of Catalan children in order to work on the children's depression field, by the means of a self-reported instrument. This study has been developed in Girona with two samples of normal 4th EGB schoolchildren.
