Abstract
The derivation and psychometric analyses of a general purpose outcome/survey instrument—the Psychosocial Functioning Inventory (PFI—are described. The instrument contains scales designed to measure a wide array of constructs, including subjective well-being, social functioning, stressful events, treatment dependency/aftercare, and consumer satisfaction. Extensive reliability and validity analyses are reported, indicating reasonable reliability and validity for the PFI scales.Keywords
