Abstract
<p class="first" id="d9049579e73">Several recent studies have documented that substantial
functional impairment is associated
with many of the mental disorders seen in primary care. However, brief measures of
mental health-related functional impairment are not commonly applied in primary care
settings. The Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS), a three-item instrument for assessing
such impairment, is evaluated in this study.
