Abstract
- Personal and Social Performance scale (PSP) is the new measurement scale of patient functioning. PSP is simple and useful questionnaire for psychiatrist and medical personnel, especially for rehabilitation center workers. Compared with GAF (Global Assessment of functioning Scale), PSP has relatively good covariance with social and occupational and psychological symptoms. In clinical practice, PSP can be adopted for treatment planning and the evaluation of treatment effect, especially for the patients with schizophrenia.
