title: [Assess Capabilities Among Chronically Mentally Ill People: First Test Results on a Draft German Version of the OxCAP-MH as Part of the BAESCAP Study].
abstract: The aim of the study was a first application and a psychometric evaluation of a pre version of the German version of the OxCAP-MH among chronically mentally ill people in Germany.
  
  
  
  We conducted a survey among chronically mentally ill people who receive integration assistance in Hamburg and Mecklenburg-West Pomerania (N = 1064).
  
  
  
  Analyses showed good results regarding a unidimensional assessment of capabilities through the German version of the OxCAP-MH.
  
  
  
  Analyses presented show that the OxCAP-MH is an adaquate instrument for measuring capabilities among chronically mentally ill people as well as limits and ways to optimize it.
