The CGI-I assesses the investigator's impression of the patient's current illness. The time span is the week before the rating and the score ranges from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Responders are subjects that have a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the CGI-I.
