Abstract
Synopsis: An investigation into observer variation and depressive phenomenology is described. A group of 6 clinicians independently completed a 43-item sheet for 20 depressed patients at the same clinical interview. The coefficient of agreements on the items are given. Patient variables and observer variables did not have any influence on the degree of agreement. There was also an agreement in the subtyping of depression.
