Omissions in assessment of work roles: implications for evaluating social functioning and mental illness.
An analysis of data from a longitudinal study of individuals during and after psychiatric hospitalization found that multiple work roles often remain unconsidered in assessments of social functioning and psychiatric status. The inclusion of such multiple roles was found to be important for adequate measurement of productive functioning and to illuminate their interaction with individuals' psychopathology.
