A total of 516 college students from 4 universities representing Taiwan's 4 geographical regions participated in the development of the inventory. Current study showed that the internal consistency and two weeks test-retest reliability coefficients for the TDICS are .95 and .84. These results demonstrated that the TDICS is a stable and reliable screening tool for depressive disorders.
