ABC World News (3/8, story 7, 0:20, Sawyer) reported, "What could be a revolution in mental health testing, family doctors will soon be able to give you a three-minute mental health evaluation."
The Los Angeles Times (3/8, Dennis) "Booster Shots" blog reported that the study, which was "published online Monday in the Annals of Family Medicine, found that a simple 27-item questionnaire shows promise in effectively screening potential patients for a variety of psychiatric disorders. That's the conclusion of researchers at the University of North Carolina who asked 647 adults at a family medicine clinic to test themselves while in the waiting room."
