title: [Various approaches to the detection of latent depression].
abstract: For the purpose of identifying masked depression the authors propose the use of a modified and adapted Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire. The Questionnaire consists of 5 blocks of questions and allows the identification of such personality characteristics and psychopathologic manifestations as anxiety, depression, somatization of anxiety, obsession and phobia. The normal parameters have been established following the examination with the help of this Questionnaire of 400 healthy subjects (200 males and 200 females). The Questionnaire can be used in wide-scale field studies of large populations.
