A rapid self-report questionnaire, which measures depression and generalised anxiety – equally useful in hospital, out-patient and community settings.
HADS measures depression and anxiety in and outside hospital and community settings.
- Contains an easy-to-use questionnaire, which allows you to establish the presence and severity of both anxiety and depression simultaneously, whilst giving a separate source for each.
- Gives cut-off points to indicate whether someone is 'within the normal range', or in a 'mildly', 'moderately' or 'severely' disordered state.
- The manual contains two scales that give an estimate or irritable mood disorder and help identify particular areas of anxious concern
