| Abstract: | Abstract Functional assessment of persons with psychiatric disabilities requires reliable and valid instruments that can be used by clinicians for planning psychosocial rehabilitation services. Two such instruments, the Independent Living Skills Inventory and the Independent Living Skills Survey are operationalized and behaviorally specific tools that can be administered as questionnaires or interviews. Both instruments have well-documented reliability and validity and are ‘user-friendly.” |
