The CUDOS has not been used with adolescents, nor does a separate adolescent version exist. The CUDOS is an 18-item self-report measure assessing depressive symptoms in adults.

Total scores range from 0 to 64. The CUDOS was designed to be completed in less than three minutes and scored in less than 15 seconds. The CUDOS demonstrates excellent internal consistency (α = .90) and adequate test-retest reliability over a period of one week ( r > ....
