Abstract

This article assesses the utility of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D) for identifying symptoms of depression among a sample of Korean immigrants in Canada. Evidence that supports the content, construct, and concurrent validity of a Korean version of this instrument (the CES-D-K) is presented, and the authors recommend that the CES-D-K be used in both cross-cultural and intranational investigations involving Korean populations. It is recommended, however, that the Positive Affect items be deleted when computing CES-D-K scores, to avoid overestimating the number of Korean immigrants manifesting high levels of psychological distress
