Abstract

Twenty-nine women were obtained from two community-based facilities and administered the 10-item Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EDPS) in a computerised and 'pencil and paper' form. A high correlation (r = 0.98) was found between the two test types. The computerised test was found to be acceptable to all women in the study. Our findings suggest that the computerised form of the EPDS may be of use in screening women in community settings and may also be valuable in antenatal or postnatal clinics.
