The purpose of the Homeless People Survey was to provide good baseline information about mental illness among homeless people in Great Britain. The survey aims were:<br> 1. To estimate the prevalence of psychiatric morbidity among homeless people aged 16-64 years<br> 2. To examine the varying use of services and receipt of care in relation to mental illness and housing circumstances<br> 3. To look at comorbidity between mental illness and physical illness, and relationships with lifestyle indicators such as drugs, tobacco and alcohol<br> 4. To investigate recent precipitating factors, including housing circumstances, which are associated with mental illness.
<B>Main Topics</B>:<BR>
Psychiatric morbidity among homeless people; alcohol, drug and tobacco use; alcohol dependence; physical complaints; use of services for homeless people; income and state benefits received; employment. Demographic variables included age, gender, marital status, homelessness and previous accommodation, including stays in psychiatric hospitals within the past five years and access to or registration with a GP.<br> Day centre staff were asked about types of client the day centre caters for and kinds of services available, for instance whether GPs, mental health teams or housing advice workers were available.<br> Standard Measures<br> Clinical Interview Schedule - revised (CIS-R): a battery of questions covering the presence of, and severity of 14 symptoms of neurotic disorder.
