A Brief Mental Health Outcome Scale
The British Journal of Psychiatry · 1995 · Vol. 166(5) · pp. 654–659
Abstract
GAF proved to be a reliable and, within the limits of the indicators used, a valid measure of psychiatric disturbance in our sample of the severely mentally ill. Differences in relationships between the three GAF scores and medication/support needs indicate the usefulness of obtaining all three scores for monitoring levels and type of psychiatric disturbance in this population.
