“…It evaluates the functioning levels in six domains: Cognition, Mobility, Self-care, Getting along, Life Activities and Participation, which composes the domains of the International Classification of Functioning ( World Health Organization, 2007 ). The 12-item instrument is a shortened version for assessments limited in time or because of other reasons that can cause an impediment to the 36-item instrument use ( Ćwirlej-Sozańska et al, 2020 ). The WHODAS 2.0 - 12 items version used in the current study limits the calculation of scores by domains and scores range on a scale of 12-60 ( World Health Organization, 2010 ).…”

“…Validation studies of the WHODAS 2.0 – 12 items showed that the instrument displays reliability to score functioning and health conditions, especially when applied to populations with mental disorders. In addition, because of its quick and easy application, its use has been recommended with this population ( Carlozzi et al, 2015 ; Axelsson et al, 2017 ; Ćwirlej-Sozańska et al, 2020 ). Non-parametric analysis shows that the 12-item instrument works well within the different levels of disablement and it presented no differences when applied to both genders ( Luciano et al, 2010 ).…”

“…This study also indicates that disability is a risk factor for depression, so that prevention of depressive incidence can be done by reducing the number of disabilities. 23 which means that this instrument is right to assess disability at individual and in different groups, 24 such as evaluate the picture of disability or independence in the general population. 25 Meanwhile, in assessing depression in the population, Riskesdas uses the MINI instrument.…”

It is recommended by the WHO to use for brief assessments in situations where time constraints do not allow for application of the longer version or where there is a need to use a short tool to study a large population [ 22 ].…”
