AB  - WHODAS-2.0 is a suggested replacement to the GAF in DSM-5. This study's purpose 
      was to assess their comparative correlation in adults with schizophrenia spectrum 
      disorder. 42 individuals with a diagnosis of schizophrenia or schizoaffective 
      disorder were administered both tools and the PANSS. Pearson product moment 
      correlations were computed and the different methods compared using bootstrap. 
      There was no significant correlation between raw WHODAS-2.0 and GAF scores for 
      all participants and a modest correlation between corrected WHODAS-2.0 and GAF 
      scores for outpatients. The WHODAS-2.0 and GAF did not correlate when WHODAS-2.0 
      was self-rated, and only modestly correlated when clinician-rater corrected.
