Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine EPIDEMIOLOGY of PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS among the population of the city of ARSANJAN (15 years of age and over). 650 individuals (274 males and 376 females), were selected using the random sampling technique. The SCL-90-R was used as a screening tool, and DSM-IV clinical interview checklist was for diagnostic purposes. Test-retest reliability of SCL-90-R was significant; and its sensitivity, specificity was high. Therefore, SCL-90-R is sufficiently reliable to apply as a screening test in epidemiological studies. Results showed that 34% of the individuals (34% females, 33.6% males) met the criteria for PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS. Mood and anxiety disorders with 14.46% and 9.53% were the most prevalent PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS. Among mood disorders, major depression disorder (MDD) with 7.23%; and among anxiety disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) with 3.53% prevalence was the most common PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS. There was no difference between men and women regarding PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS prevalence. Analysis of the data indicated a higher prevalence and significant differences of PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS in employed women, age range 15-25 years, students, unmarried persons and individuals with high education.
