Abstract

Summary As part of a survey of 1517 women aged 20–60 years, a factor analysis and validation study of the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) was carried out. Although three clinically relevant factors could be isolated, their sensitivity was less than that of the total GHQ score, which was found to be a good measure of current psychiatric disturbance in this community sample.
