Study 2: Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9)
The second study will use the PHQ-9 self-administered version. The PHQ-9 is the depression module, which scores each of the nine DSM-IV criteria as “0” (not at all) to “3” (nearly every day). The PHQ-9 has been validated for use in primary care (Sun et al., 2020). It was applied in a sample size of 15 adult patients seen at Louisiana Well Medical Center (LWMC) affected by a severe weather condition and with depression symptoms.
Instruction: Over the last two weeks, how often have you been bothered by any of the following problems?
