目的.介绍一种新的老年人生活质量测量方法--老年人生活质量问卷（OPQOL）的心理测量学特性，并与CAPSE-19和WHOQOL-OLD进行比较。设计和方法。该工具是三个全国人口调查的老年人生活在家里在英国，包括一个调查的种族多样化的老年人。结果OPQOL在英国老年人人群样本中具有可接受的信度和效度水平，但在种族多样性人群样本中更为温和。CASP-19和WHOQOL-OLD在英国人口样本中具有可接受的信度和效度水平，但在种族多样性样本中则不然。影响。OPQOL有潜力作为一个多层面的人口监测工具，用于老年人口，或作为多部门政策的结果措施。它的优点是，它的发展是牢固地嵌入在老年人的观点，与理论相结合。
Purpose. To present the psychometric properties of a new measure of quality of life in older age, the Older People's Quality of Life (OPQOL) Questionnaire, compared with the CAPSE-19 and the WHOQOL-OLD. Design and Methods. The vehicle was three national population surveys of older people living at home in Britain, including a survey of ethnically diverse older people. Results. The OPQOL had acceptable levels of reliability and validity in British population samples of older people, but more modest in the ethnically diverse population sample. The CASP-19 and WHOQOL-OLD had acceptable levels of reliability and validity in the British population sample, but not in the ethnically diverse sample. Implications. The OPQOL has potential for use as a multidimensional population surveillance instrument for use with older populations, or as an outcome measure of multisector policy. Its strengths are that its development was embedded firmly in the perspectives of older people, integrated with theory.
