Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the internal reliability and convergent validity of the 1993 McGreal and Joseph Depression-Happiness Scale. Internal reliability was satisfactory and higher scores on the scale were associated with lower scores of 60 working adults on the General Health Questionnaire of Goldberg and Williams.
