			<p>BSI 18 provides an overview of a patient&#39;s symptoms and their intensity at a specific point in time. It can be used by psychologists, psychiatrists, physicians, nurses and other health care professionals.</p>

			<h3>Benefits</h3>

				<li>Measure symptom change and patient progress during and after treatment.</li>
				<li>Support managed care decisions.</li>
				<li>Provide outcomes measurement for treatment programs.</li>
			</ul>

			<h3>Features</h3>

			<p>BSI 18 is the latest in an integrated series of test instruments that include the SCL-90-R, BSI (53 questions), and DPRS instruments.</p>

			<ul>
				<li>Three symptom scales: Somatization, Depression, and Anxiety.</li>
				<li>Global Severity Index helps measure overall psychological distress level.</li>

			<h3>Sample Reports</h3>

			<p>Profile reports present raw and normalized T scores for each of the three Primary Symptom Dimensions and the Global Severity Index. Progress reports monitor a client&rsquo;s progress over time.</p>
