title: A comparison between the Hamilton Rating Scale and the Beck Inventory in the measurement of depression.
abstract: Correlations were made between ratings on the Hamilton Rating Scale for depression and the Inventory for measuring depression devised by Beck. Satisfactory and significant correlations were observed in only two-thirds of the patients, and often very divergent results were found in the remaining third.
