abstract="PURPOSE: To evaluate the association between two measurement tools (Social and Occupational Functioning Assessment Scale, SOFAS and Sheehan Disability Scale, SDS), returning to work (RTW) and their inter-correlation. <br><br>METHODS: 132 psychiatric patients referred to assessment of work ability participated. The association between SOFAS and SDS Work to RTW were assessed by logistic regression. Inter-correlations between SOFAS and SDS were assessed with the Spearman's rho correlation coefficient. <br><br>RESULTS: SOFAS and SDS Work scores were associated with a 1-year RTW and SOFAS and SDS were inter-correlated. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: When assigning the ability to work, both subjective and objective measures of function predict RTW.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
