Disclaimer:
ODST is a preliminary screening test for depressive symptoms that does
not replace in any way a formal psychiatric evaluation. It is designed to
give a preliminary idea about the presence of mild to moderate
depressive symptoms that indicate the need for an evaluation by a
psychiatrist.
