Given the simplicity of this single item nine-point depression rating scale, and mode of administration, this is encouraging, especially when one considers that the observed degree of association between responses for the BDI-II and the PHQ-9, both psychometrically robust depressions outcome measures, was only marginally greater.

To maintain consistency with the other scales, the mode of administration of the SITBI-11 was changed to self-report (using pencil and paper).
