Global Survey Examines Impact of Depression
Abstract
A new World Health Organization (WHO) study seeks to verify recent findings on the social and economic burden of mental health conditions worldwide using standardized instruments, translated in a manner that is culturally valid for each location. Launched last month, this massive, in-depth survey of mental health conditions around the globe will focus on depression, which WHO expects to be the second leading cause of disability after heart disease by 2020.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
