Single-item screening for agoraphobic symptoms: validation of a web-based audiovisual screening instrument.
The advent of web-based treatments for anxiety disorders creates a need for quick and valid online screening instruments, suitable for a range of social groups. This study validates a single-item multimedia screening instrument for agoraphobia, part of the Visual Screener for Common Mental Disorders...
