INTERPRETING THE BECK DEPRESSION INVENTORY

Now that you have completed the questionnaire, add up the score for each of the twenty-one

questions by counting the number to the right of each question you marked. The highest possible

total for the whole test would be sixty-three. This would mean you circled number three on all

twenty-one questions. Since the lowest possible score for each question is zero, the lowest

possible score for the test would be zero. This would mean you circles zero on each question.

You can evaluate your depression according to the Table below.

11-16___________________ Mild mood disturbance
