The Hypomania Checklist (HCL) has become an important tool for the assessment of hypomanic symptoms in patients with mood disorders and in the general population. The HCL-33 scale, containing 33 symptom items, is a new instrument which, in addition to the self-administered questionnaire, has a version for external rating. The aim of this study is to evaluate the consistency between the self - and external assessments using the HCL-33 in Polish patients with bipolar disorder.
