Abstract

The association between psychological disorders and psychosocial functioning variables has been previously documented, but relatively few studies have examined the impact of these variables on psychological treatment outcomes. The aim of this study was to assess the life functioning of 78 patients from a psychological service centre, and to examine its relationship with clinical variables and treatment success. Life functioning was evaluated with a scale elaborated ad hoc for this study. The partner area of functioning was the most impaired while family and personal areas obtained the highest functioning scores. Patient’s life functioning was significantly associated with several axis of DSM-IV-TR. It was confirmed that patients with poorer life functioning required a greater number of treatment objectives.
