Which article are you evaluating?
(Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
This is a resource that as physicians we might look up quite often. Especially since I am planning to go into family medicine I believe that this might be a good resource as a refresher for physicians that are not necessarily focusing on psychiatry but feel that mental health and wellness should be incorporated in their daily practice.

Evaluate the article
This article has a great and concise lead section, it does not include any information that is then not discussed later on in the article. It is a great summary of what the questionnaire is and the different 7 points it covers.

I think content is great in terms of explaining relevant information regarding the GAD-7 like interpretation of results. I think it is missing a section on its use in outpatient and primary care settings, expanding on when it is used and given to patients.

The article is neutral in its tone without any bias that I could tell.

The sources and references used seem neutral and thorough. It is well organized, but I still think some sections are missing that could better explain when it is used.

Some mentioned in the "talk" page to possibly merge this page with the Generalized Anxiety Disorder page, but another user disagreed because it is a very popular scale to give out to patients in clinical setting, so therefore many people will look it up to either review or find out more about it and what it means, which I agree with that it should be its own page for ease of looking up without having to read about GAD.

The article is rated as a stub class which I would agree with, it includes very bare minimum information that could be elaborated on. For example just describing the different uses. The history of its use, who developed it, and possibly any major uses throughout history.
