对日文版《慢性病治疗功能评估-精神量表》(Facit-Sp)的信度和效度进行评估。这一量表是在美国开发的，用于评估与灵性有关的生活质量(QOL)。对306名癌症患者每人进行了两次调查。除Facit-Sp外，还使用了医院焦虑和抑郁量表(HADS)。Facit-Sp分量表的Cronbach‘sα信度系数为0.81至0.91，是内部一致性的评估。用Facit-Sp量表和HADS量表评估的患者在宗教感受程度上没有显著差异。Facit-Sp与HADS抑郁量表、焦虑量表的相关系数为中等。这些发现表明，日本版的Facit-Sp量表在信度和效度上是令人满意的，是研究日本癌症患者灵性的有用工具。
The reliability and validity of the Japanese version of the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Spiritual (FACIT-Sp) scale were assessed. This scale was developed in the United States to assess quality of life (QOL) in relation to spirituality. Two surveys were conducted on each of 306 cancer patients. In addition to the FACIT-Sp, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was administered. Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient, an evaluation of internal consistency, for the FACIT-Sp subscales ranged from 0.81 to 0.91. There were no significant differences between the patients evaluated using the FACIT-Sp subscale and the HADS subscale with regard to degree of religious feelings. The correlation coefficients between the FACIT-Sp and the HADS depression and anxiety scales indicated a moderate correlation. These findings suggest that the Japanese version of the FACIT-Sp scale is satisfactory in terms of reliability and validity and is a useful tool in the study of spirituality among Japanese cancer patients.
