A 20-item interview version of the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) was used to presumptively identify cases with mental disorders in a sample of 810 community residents. Subjects also were examined by psychiatrists using the Present State Examination (PSE). The screening instrument performed well in detecting PSE-CATEGO syndromes related to anxiety and depression, but less well in detecting psychotic syndromes and cognitive impairment. The overall sensitivity of the instrument for any PSE-CATEGO syndrome was 48%. The study elucidates the specific nature of the psychopathology that this version of the GHQ is likely to detect in the community.
使用一份包含20个条目的一般健康问卷（GHQ）访谈版，对810名社区居民样本进行筛查，以初步识别患有精神障碍的病例。研究对象还接受了精神科医生使用现况检查（PSE）的检查。该筛查工具在检测与焦虑和抑郁相关的PSE - CATEGO综合征方面表现良好，但在检测精神病性综合征和认知障碍方面表现欠佳。该工具对任何PSE - CATEGO综合征的总体敏感性为48%。这项研究阐明了该版GHQ在社区中可能检测到的精神病理学的具体性质。
