AB  - The current study sought to evaluate the validity and reliability of a brief 
      measure of overall functioning for adolescents. Clinicians were asked to complete 
      the Overall Functioning Scale (OFS) for 72 adolescents consecutively admitted to 
      the adolescent psychiatric inpatient service of a community safety net medical 
      center. The results revealed that this new measure is related to the patients' 
      length of stay, clinician-rated measures of social cognition and object 
      relations, Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) score at admission, as well as 
      global rating of engagement in individual psychotherapy. The results also showed 
      that the OFS was related to the patients' history of nonsuicidal self-harm as 
      well as treatment outcome as assessed by measures of psychological health and 
      well-being as well as symptoms. Hierarchical regressions reveal that the OFS 
      shows incremental validity greater than the admission GAF score in predicting 
      length of stay. The results also showed that the OFS demonstrates interrater 
      reliability in the excellent range (intraclass correlation coefficient(1,2)) of 
      0.88. Clinical implications of the use of this tool and areas of future research 
      are discussed.
