A seven item self-report questionnaire covering the previous two weeks based largely on the DSM-IV criteria for “Generalised Anxiety Disorder”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The development was described in Spitzer, R. L., Kroenke, K., Williams, J. B. W., & L\u00f6we, B. (2006). A Brief Measure for Assessing Generalized Anxiety Disorder: The GAD-7. Archives of Internal Medicine<\/em>, 166<\/em>(10), 1092. https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1001\/archinte.166.10.1092<\/a>. The measure is copyright to the drug company Pfizer (https:\/\/www.phqscreeners.com\/<\/a>) and they make no charge for reproduction though the licence has never been made explicit as far as I know. With the related PHQ-9 it has become almost a de rigeur <\/em>measure in mental health. The seven items are each scored 0 to 3 on the same response scale: “Not at all”, “Several days”, “More than half the days” and “Nearly every day” for a total score from zero to 21. I can’t see any guidance about prorating of missing items and it is probably often delivered now through web forms or apps that don’t allow non-response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Not covered in the OMbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I think there are many online forms for the GAD-7.
