What does the mnemonic SIG-E-CAPS represent?

Choice A reason: “Inhibition” is incorrect; the mnemonic specifically represents “interest” to highlight anhedonia in depression rather than psychomotor inhibition. Choice B reason: SIG-E-CAPS is a validated mnemonic for major depressive disorder, representing Sleep disturbances, Interest deficit, Guilt, Energy reduction, Cognition/concentration difficulties, Appetite changes, Psychomotor agitation/retardation, and Suicidal ideation, making it the correct choice. Choice C reason: “Sex” is not part of the mnemonic; sexual dysfunction may occur in depression but is not included in SIG-E-CAPS. Choice D reason: “Elevated mood” is incorrect, as the mnemonic applies to depressive symptoms rather than mania or hypomania.
