[Screening for Anxiety in People with an Intellectual Disability: German Version of the "Glasgow Anxiety Scale for People with an Intellectual Disability" (GAS-ID)].

Objective: As of yet, there exists no German-language self-rating questionnaire as a screening for anxiety disorders in people with an intellectual disability. Therefore the Glasgow Anxiety Scale for people with an Intellectual Disability (GAS-ID) was translated into German and its psychometric properties were assessed.

Methods: Internal consistency and concurrent validity were tested in 34 adults with learning difficulties and mild and moderate intellectual disability.

It is time to adjust the adjustment disorder category.

Purpose Of Review: A recent review highlighted the existing lack of evidence concerning adjustment disorders. It concluded that we should wait to adjust adjustment disorders until evidence is available. This is circular reasoning, fixing the poor definition of adjustment disorders.
