AB  - RATIONALE, AIMS, AND OBJECTIVES: This study aims to examine the smallest 
      detectable change (SDC) and test-retest reliability of the Center for 
      Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), General Self-Efficacy Scale 
      (GSES), and 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12). METHOD: We tested 154 
      young adults at baseline and 2 weeks later. We calculated the intra-class 
      correlation coefficients (ICCs) for test-retest reliability with a two-way random 
      effects model for agreement. We then calculated the standard error of measurement 
      (SEM) for agreement using the ICC formula. The SEM for agreement was used to 
      calculate SDC values at the individual level (SDC(ind) ) and group level 
      (SDC(group) ). RESULTS: The study participants included 137 young adults. The 
      ICCs for all self-reported outcome measurement scales exceeded 0.70. The SEM of 
      CES-D was 3.64, leading to an SDC(ind) of 10.10 points and SDC(group) of 0.86 
      points. The SEM of GSES was 1.56, leading to an SDC(ind) of 4.33 points and 
      SDC(group) of 0.37 points. The SEM of GHQ-12 with bimodal scoring was 1.47, 
      leading to an SDC(ind) of 4.06 points and SDC(group) of 0.35 points. The SEM of 
      GHQ-12 with Likert scoring was 2.44, leading to an SDC(ind) of 6.76 points and 
      SDC(group) of 0.58 points. CONCLUSION: To confirm that the change was not a 
      result of measurement error, a score of self-reported outcome measurement scales 
      would need to change by an amount greater than these SDC values. This has 
      important implications for clinicians and epidemiologists when assessing 
      outcomes.
