- Abstract
The article discusses a reevaluation of the PHQ-9 cut-off score for detecting depression in the general population, proposing ≥8 as an alternative to ≥10 to balance sensitivity and specificity. Topics include the study's focus on the general population, the use of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview for diagnosis, and the importance of cultural considerations in interpreting the PHQ-9 scores.
