目的:健康相关生活质量(HRQOL)在临床研究中越来越多地被用作一种结果测量。虽然在以前的研究中使用了通用的生命质量仪器,但与通用仪器相比,疾病专用仪器对变化的敏感性和反应性更高。目前还没有适用于饮食失调样本的这种疾病特异性仪器。方法:本文报道了进食障碍生活质量(EDQOL)量表的开发和验证,这是一种针对进食障碍患者的疾病特异性HRQOL自我报告问卷。结果:EDQOL具有良好的心理测量性能。结论:考虑将EDQOL作为进食障碍研究的一种结局指标。(c) 2005, Wiley期刊公司
Objective: Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) has been used increasingly as an outcome measure in clinical research. Although the generic quality of life instruments has been used in previous research, disease-specific instruments offer greater sensitivity and responsiveness to change than generic instruments. No such disease-specific instrument is currently available that applies to eating-disordered samples.Method: The current article reports on the development and validation of the Eating Disorders Quality of Life (EDQOL) instrument, a disease-specific HRQOL self-report questionnaire designed for disordered eating patients.Results: The EDQOL demonstrates excellent psychometric properties.Conclusion: The application of the EDQOL as an outcome measure in eating disorder research is considered.
