Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health · 2003 · Vol. 57(4) · pp. 259–263
Abstract
This study suggested that the Chinese (mainland) version of the SF-36 functioned in the general population of Hangzhou, China quite similarly to the original American population tested. Caution is recommended in the interpretation of the social functioning and vitality scales pending further studies.
