Generalized Anxiety Disorder (Primary Caregiver and Young Adult Report on Self)

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (Primary Caregiver and Young Adult Report on Self)

The Generalized Anxiety Disorder (Primary Caregiver and Young Adult Report on Self) instrument was adapted from the Anxiety module of the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children (DISC 4). It obtained information regarding the primary caregivers' and subjects' worrying and anxiety. It asked a slightly different but similarly themed set of questions than the set used in PHDCN Generalized Anxiety Disorder (Primary Caregiver Report on Subject), Wave 3, 2000-2002 (ICPSR 13706) and PHDCN Generalized Anxiety Disorder (Subject and Young Adult), Wave 3, 2000-2002 (ICPSR 13708).

WAVE 3: The Generalized Anxiety Disorder (Primary Caregiver and Young Adult Report on Self) instrument (PDF 3.4MB) was administered to subjects' primary caregivers in Cohorts 0 to 15 and to subjects in Cohort 18.
