Williams, Kurt Kroenke and colleagues, with an educational grant from Pfizer Inc., can be useful tools to help identify if you are at risk for depression and/or anxiety. They are provided in Health for informational purposes only and the results are not a medical diagnosis. The assessments are only clinically validated in certain countries and languages.
