Abstract

In ten studies with a total sample of over 4,600 participants from three countries, we document the development and validation of the Depression Literacy Scale (DLS). This 14-item self-report measure captures how people vary across two dimensions of knowledge about depression - accurate/evidence-based knowledge vs. stereotypical/lay knowledge).
