{{short description|Survey of patient health}} '''The Short Form (12) Health Survey''' is a 12-item, patient-reported survey of patient health. It is a reduced size version of the SF-36, and is widely used since it produces similar results for physical and mental health scores with far less respondent burden for producing scores of overall mental and physical well-being.<ref>{{Cite journal|title = A shorter form health survey: can the SF-12 replicate results from the SF-36 in longitudinal studies?|url = https://www.researchgate.net/publication/13977335|journal = Journal of Public Health Medicine|date = 1996-11-03|accessdate=2020-06-24|volume = 19|pages=179–186|pmid=9243433|first = Crispin|last = Jenkinson|issue = 2|doi = 10.1093/oxfordjournals.pubmed.a024606|doi-access = free}}</ref> <ref> {{Cite journal|title = Development and Testing of the UK SF-12 |url = https://www.researchgate.net/publication/13977335|journal = Journal of Health Services Research & Policy|date = 1997-01-01|accessdate=2020-06-24|volume = 2|issue=1|pmid=10180648|first1 = Crispin|last1 = Jenkinson|first2 = Richard|last2 = Layte|pages = 14–8|doi = 10.1177/135581969700200105|s2cid = 74438783}}</ref> <ref> {{Cite journal|title = Cross-Validation of Item Selection and Scoring for the SF-12 Health Survey in Nine Countries: Results from the IQOLA Project|url = https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0895435698001097/links/004635232ca5b356e7000000.pdf|journal = Journal of Clinical Epidemiology|date = 1998-11-01 |accessdate=2020-06-24|volume = 51|issue=11|pages=1171–1178|pmid=9817135|first = Barbara|last = Gandek|doi = 10.1016/S0895-4356(98)00109-7}}</ref>
