Description
Respondents reported whether their level of depression, the last time they felt depressed, was "closer to a little, closer to a lot, or exactly in the middle". This question was only asked of respondents who reported that their level of depression was "somewhere between a little and a lot" (DEPFEELEVL) and who had feelings of depression at least monthly (DEPFREQ) or who were taking medication for depression (DEPRX).
In 2010, this item was collected for sample adults who completed the Quality of Life supplement (administered to approximately a quarter of sample adults). In 2011, this item was collected for sample adults who completed the Adult Functioning and Disability supplement (administered to a subset of sample adults).
