AB  - BACKGROUND: The Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) has been accepted as one of 
      the most commonly used self-report measures for depression. However, there is no 
      study examining the psychometric properties of the BDI-II among substance users 
      in low- and middle-income countries such as Myanmar. Therefore, this study aimed 
      to evaluate the suitability of using this instrument in substance users and to 
      examine the reliability and diagnostic efficiency to be compared with the 
      International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) among substance users in 
      Northern Shan State of Myanmar. METHODS: A respondent-driven sampling (RDS) 
      method was applied for recruiting the participants in this study, and total 230 
      substance users were recruited. On the other hand, 50 participants who visited 
      the drop-in center (DIC) were screened for depressive symptoms using ICD-10 
      during the days when one consultant psychiatrist doctor was presented. These 
      participants were interviewed face-to-face by the consultant psychiatrist using a 
      semi-structured questionnaire including the Myanmar version of the BDI-II 
      (mBDI-II). RESULTS: The mBDI-II showed moderate accuracy with an area under the 
      curve of 0.68. The optimal cutoff score was 10 with the highest Youden index 
      (0.48), and it had high sensitivity and specificity (0.78 and 0.70). The 
      Cronbach's alpha coefficients for clinically depressed and non-clinically 
      depressed substance users were 0.91 and 0.93, respectively. Confirmatory factor 
      analysis of the mBDI-II indicated that a three-factor solution (cognitive, 
      affective, and somatic) was the best fit for substance users. CONCLUSIONS: The 
      mBDI-II has sound psychometric properties among substance users with moderate 
      accuracy and range of possible cutoff scores together with sensitivity and 
      specificity.
