- General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12, -20, -28, -30, -60)

Source: GL Assessment

Date Published: 1980

Format: Text

Annotation: Developed in the 1970s, the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) is a method of quantifying the risk of developing psychiatric disorders. This instrument targets two areas in order to assess well-being in a person: the inability to carry out normal functions, and the appearance of distress. The format of the full GHQ is a 60-item test with a four-point scale for each response. The test exists in several alternate forms: GHQ-30 (30 items), GHQ-28 (28 items), GHQ-20 (20 items), and the GHQ-12 (12 items). In epidemiological studies, the 12-item version is most frequently used. In clinical studies, the 28-item "scaled" version or the 30-item version are most frequently used. For additional information, see the Frequently Asked Questions, http://www.gl-assessment.co.uk/products/general-health-questionnaire/general-health-questionnaire-faqs, from the publisher GL Assessment. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments.
