“…To be specific, homeless persons who had obtained regular domicile at T2 reported significant reduction in depressive symptoms, yielding a mean CES-D score that is closer to the norm of the general population (Clark et al, 1981;Coyle & Roberge, 1992;Husaini, Neff, Harrington, Hughes, & Stone, 1980;Radloff, 1977). This study, therefore, demonstrated a desirable property of the CES-D scale that has been documented in studies of the general population-that is, the scale's sensitivity to current mood state, as affected by life events encountered by the participants (Radloff, 1977, p. 397).…”

The measurement properties of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D; L. S. Radloff, 1977) were evaluated in a probability sample of homeless adults residing in a large and demographically diverse community. The findings from this investigation suggest that the CES-D is a reliable measure of depressive symptoms among homeless adults and that the factor structure of the scale replicates the factor structure found in the general population. Change in the CES-D scores was associated with change in residential status, with participants who had made a transition from homelessness to regular domicile, reporting significantly lower levels of depressive symptomatology. This result indicates the scale's sensitivity to current depressive mood, as affected by significant life events encountered by homeless persons.

“…Participants completed the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale (37) to assess current depressive symptomatology. The Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale was selected because it appears to be less sensitive than other depression scales to somatic symptoms that may be common during the postpartum period (38). Women also completed the Perceived Stress Scale (39), designed to assess the degree to which an individual appraises situations as stressful.…”

“…In addition, convergent validity has been supported through the instrument's correlation with other measures of depression (Radloff, 1977;Weissman, Sholomskas, Pottenger, Prusoff, & Locke, 1977). Coyle and Roberge (1992) found that the CES-D had good factorial validity, and Weissman et al found the CES-D to have an excellent rating (i.e., greater than .90) in its ability to distinguish depressed from nondepressed individuals. CES-D reliability (i.e., Cronbach's alpha) was .87.…”

A nationally selected, random sample of Roman Catholic secular (i.e., diocesan) priests was examined using the Center for Epidemiological StudiesDepression scale and an instrument developed for this study to assess contributors to priests' vocational satisfaction. In addition, a self-report inventory gathered information regarding participants' demographics as well as four categories of predictor variables (i.e., overall level of vocational satisfaction, social support, spiritual activities, physical environment). The study yielded a response rate of 45%. Secular clergy reported rates of depression approximately seven times greater than are found in the general population, and also indicated that the recent sexual abuse scandal in the Roman Catholic Church had negatively affected their mood. Priests' engagement in sacramental activities contributed greatly to their vocational
