TL;DR: A self-report version of the Scale for Suicide Ideation (SSI) was administered to 50 inpatients diagnosed with mixed DSM-III psychiatric disorders and 55 outpatients with affective disorders; the patients described more severe suicide ideation than clinicians reported.

TL;DR: To ascertain the dimensions of the Beck Depression Inventory-II in clinically depressed outpatients, exploratory factor analyses were performed and supported a model in which the BDI-II reflected one underlying second-order dimension of self-reported depression composed of two first-order factors representing cognitive and noncognitive symptoms.

TL;DR: To provide further information about the construct validity of the Beck Depression Inventory-II the inventory was administered to 210 psychiatric outpatients along with Derogatis' SCL-90-R and found it was more positively correlated with scores on the Depression subscale than with those on the Anxiety subscale.

TL;DR: In this article, the BAI was administered to 470 outpatients with mixed psychiatric disorders along with the revised Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the SCL-90-R.
