Two simple screening instruments for mental disorders in adults and children respectively were developed in the course of an evaluative study on mental health care in developing countries. Two research teams have attempted to use these same instruments as training tools for primary health care workers. Their experience has shown that the design of the instruments with short, easily understandable questions to which an answer "yes" or "no" can be given is also highly appropriate in the training situation and in daily work. The adaptation and use of these new training tools for primary health care workers in Manila (Philippines) and Cali (Colombia) is described.
