However, due to cognitive differences and the complexity of emotional expression among adolescents, existing assessment tools often present challenges in their selection and application. This study reviews and analyzes the literature related to 8 commonly used adolescent depression assessment scales, including the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), the Reynolds Adolescent Depression Scales (RADS), the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), the Kutcher Adolescent Depression Scale (KADS), the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) and the Depression Screener for Teenagers (DesTeen). Through a comprehensive analysis of each scale's strengths, limitations and practical applications, this narrative review aims to guide healthcare practitioners and researchers in selecting optimal measurement tools for different clinical and research contexts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Relevant studies on 8 frequently used or well-supported adolescent depression assessment scales (CDI, RADS, CES-D, BDI, PHQ, KADS, HAMD, DesTeen) were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang databases. A total of 102 articles were ultimately selected for data extraction to determine the reliability and validity of these scales.

All 8 adolescent depression assessment scales generally exhibit good reliability and validity. Among them, the HAMD is used for detailed clinical evaluation of depressive symptoms but suffers from complexity due to its reliance on professional assessors. The BDI and the CES-D provide the most comprehensive dimensions. While the BDI is suitable for clinical assessments, it has the drawback of containing items that may be difficult to understand. The CES-D is well-suited for epidemiological research and large-scale screenings but has the limitation of unclear differentiation between emotional and somatic symptoms. The RADS is recognized for its comprehensive items and high reliability and validity, although its lengthy items may lead to respondent fatigue. The CDI allows multidimensional assessment of depressive symptoms but has been debated regarding its applicability across different age groups.

Moreover, our findings highlight the impact of broader societal trends, such as economic inflation and social division, on family well-being.

Yet, it remains unclear whether and how specific processes related to emotion regulation contribute to daily life impairments, across different domains of functioning. The aim of this cross-sectional study in community adolescents was to investigate whether three processes commonly implicated in adaptive emotion regulation-emotion recognition, emotion reactivity and use of cognitive emotion regulation strategies-uniquely contribute to adolescent-rated functional impairment, above and beyond the effects of age and gender, ADHD symptoms, and individual differences in verbal ability and executive functions.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>161 adolescents from the general population (mean age = 15.57; SD = 1.61) completed the Weiss Functional Impairment Scale, the Emotion Reactivity Scale, the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and the Geneva Emotion Recognition Test. Hierarchical regression analysis examined the unique contributions of candidate predictors to impairment scores.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Total impairment scores were best predicted by older age, inattention symptoms, higher emotion reactivity, and higher use of maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies. Emotion regulation processes were associated with interpersonal difficulties and self-concept impairments, whereas inattention symptoms were associated with school and life skills impairments.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This study stresses that emotion reactivity and maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation represent major sources of perceived social and emotional difficulties in community adolescents. Our results also support the continuum hypothesis of attention difficulties, where emotion regulation abilities may at least partially explain the association between ADHD symptoms and social impairments. Together, these findings highlight the vital importance of targeting emotion regulation in psychotherapeutic interventions aiming to improve socio-emotional outcomes in adolescents.</p>","PeriodicalId":9934,"journal":{"name":"Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health","volume":"19 1","pages":"47"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12042477/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143966430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
