The SF-36 Health Survey is a widely used tool for assessing general health status. It consists of 36 questions that cover eight health domains: physical functioning, role limitations due to physical health problems, bodily pain, general health perceptions, vitality (energy/fatigue), social functioning, role limitations due to emotional problems, and mental health. These domains are aggregated into two summary measures: the Physical Component Summary (PCS) and the Mental Component Summary (MCS).
