WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Colombian Depression Scale DISC Test

Columbia Depression Scale (DISC) Test

depressionsuicidal risk

This measure is designed to support structured screening of depressive symptoms and related suicide risk indicators in adolescents. The Columbia Depression Scale (DISC) is intended for use with youth and can incorporate parallel perspectives when administered in different respondent formats.

The scale includes 46 items and typically takes about 9 minutes to complete. It may be used in clinical, school, or community settings to help identify individuals who may need further assessment, monitoring, or referral based on endorsed symptom severity and risk-related responses.

The Columbia Depression Scale (DISC) is attributed to Maria Kovacs. Interpretation should consider the assessment context, respondent type, and the need for follow-up evaluation when responses suggest elevated risk.
