Objective: To check the validity of the preliminary results with the Gender-Sensitive Depression Screening (GSDS) in two German samples of non-psychiatric outpatients.

Methods: The psychometric validation of the GSDS-33 was performed in a sample of non-psychiatric outpatients of different clinics belonging to the Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich (n = 958) and in a male non-psychiatric sample of the Men's Health Center in Berlin (n = 237).

Results: Findings of the first validation study of the GSDS (Möller-Leimkühler, Mühleck 2020) were largely confirmed.
