Abstract
Validation of the Georgian versions of the GAD-7 and WHO-5 scales was conducted on the nationwide representative sample of 1700 adults in Georgia. Confirmatory factor analysis yielded good fit indices and high item loadings. Effective functioning of these scales across diverse and unique linguistic and cultural contexts was demonstrated.
