Popis: The authors describe the psychometric properties of a simple patient satisfaction self-report instrument originally developed for use in primary care patients, adapted for use in mental health clinic patients of varied educational and socioeconomic backgrounds. The instrument demonstrated a single major principal component, high internal consistency reliability, high test-retest reliability, and sensitivity to change with experimental manipulations in clinical programming. The results also indicate that patient satisfaction is unidimensional in mental health patients as it is for primary care patients.
