There is now an increasing emphasis on the views of the consumers of health care, but little is known of psychiatric patients' opinions on their care and treatment. This may be due to an assumption that their reports are unreliable. Much of the research in this area has been carried out in the USA, although there have been reports from the UK and elsewhere (Freeman & Kendall, Hansson et al, 1985; Lazare et al, 1975; McIntyre et al, 1989; Weinstein, 1981).

Abstract. Background: People who feel they have become a burden on others may become susceptible to suicidal ideation. When people no longer feel capable or productive, they may assume that friends and family members would be better off without them. Aim: The present study was designed to assess preliminary psychometric properties of a new measure, the Perceived Burdensomeness (PBS) Scale. Method: Depressed psychiatric patients (N = 173) were recruited from a veterans affairs medical center. Patients were assessed with a structured diagnostic interview and self-report measures assessing perceived burdensomeness, depression severity, hopelessness, and suicidal ideation. Results: The present study supported preliminary evidence of reliability and concurrent validity of the PBS. Additionally, perceived burdensomeness was significantly associated with higher levels of hopelessness and suicidal ideation. Conclusion: It is hoped that with the aid of the PBS clinicians may be able to intervene more specifically in the treatment of suicidality.
