Assessing diagnostic precision: Adaptations of the hopkins symptom checklist (HSCL-5/10/25) among tertiary-level students in Norway
All three HSCL versions showed high criterion validity. The data indicate that HSCL may be better as a screening tool than for precise estimation of MDE and GAD prevalence. For improved diagnostic accuracy, future HSCL versions should incorporate functional impairment assessment. This update would bring the HSCL into closer alignment with clinical diagnostic standards.
