Abstract

Background: The problem of the undiagnosed and inadequate treatment of mental disorders in people who visit health services has been studied in Iran and some countries. There is not, however, enough information for SOLDIERS. This study investigates the GENERAL HEALTH status of SOLDIERS who referred to an outpatient clinic for physical problems by use of a self-administered scale.Materials and methods: Three hundred one (301) SOLDIERS serving in the Army, aged 21.49±2.02 years, were examined when they visited an outpatient clinic in Tehran (2006). The 28-item Persian version of the GENERAL HEALTH QUESTIONNAIRE was administered to subjects to determine their MENTAL HEALTH status and to examine possible associations with sociodemographic variables.Results: One hundred seventy four out of 301 individuals (57.8%) were classified as GHQ cases. GHQ caseness was statistically associated with physical inactivity, self injury, prison history and time of serving. On the subscale "somatic symptoms" 46.8%, "anxiety and insomnia" 46.5%, "social function" 38.9% and "depression" 62.1% were healthy.Conclusions: A large number of SOLDIERS present undiagnosed psychological problems. Since SOLDIERS are in danger of losing their health due to their situation, some improvements should be done to promote their GENERAL HEALTH.
