ROC curve of the depression scales.
Patients with a self-report physician’s diagnosis of depression were analyzed (sample 1). Area under the curve of LDS-19 scale = 0.833 [0.781–0.885] (p<0.001); at value = 16.50, Se = 82.8% and Sp = 72.1%. Area under the curve of HAMD-7 scale = 0.788 [0.731–0.844] (p<0.001); at value = 5.50, Se = 82.8% and Sp = 62.4%. Area under the curve of MADRS scale = 0.827 [0.773–0.882] (p<0.001); at value = 9.50, Se = 81.0% and Sp = 73.4%.
