Correction: Beck Depression Inventory
15 December 1995 | Volume 123 Issue 12 | Page 966
In Table 1 of a recent article [1], the time frame for questions in the Beck Depression Inventory was misstated. Rather than limiting their responses to "today," patients should evaluate the statements in each group according to the way they have been feeling in the past week, including "today."
