DSM-linked mental-health indicators
Disorder estimates and validated symptom screens derived from DSM criteria. Treatment, service use, unmet need, general distress, and substance-use measures are excluded.
Strict inclusion rule: a measure must either apply DSM disorder criteria/modeling or use a validated screener derived from DSM symptom criteria. Screeners indicate symptom burden, not a clinical diagnosis.
