Abstract Background The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale HADS is a widely used instrument to measure psychological morbidity in cancer patients. This study aimed to translate and test the reliability and validity of the Iranian version of the HADS. Methods The English language version of the HADS was translated into Persian Iranian language and was used in this study. The questionnaire was administered to a consecutive sample of 167 breast cancer patients and statistical analysis was performed to test the reliability and validity of the HADS. Results In general the Iranian version of the HADS was found to be acceptable to almost all patients 99 . Cronbach s alpha coefficient to test reliability has been found to be for the HADS anxiety sub-scale and for the HADS depression sub-scale. Validity as performed using known groups comparison analysis showed satisfactory results. Both anxiety and depression subscales discriminated well between sub-groups of patients differing in clinical status as defined by their disease .
