摘要
In randomized clinical trials in patients with major depression quality of life is considered as an important dimension of treatment outcome in relation to clinical efficacy and safety. The internal validity, reliability, as well as external validity of quality of life scales have been analysed. It is concluded that such scales have their most appropriate applicability in medicine and long-term trials with antidepressants.
