慢性疼痛的心理评估通常使用问卷来完成，例如（West Haven-Yale）多维疼痛量表（(WHY)MPI），该量表旨在捕捉慢性疼痛的多维度。（为什么）MPI理论起源于疼痛的行为和认知行为理论。它分为三个部分，测量疼痛的心理和行为后果。该问卷已显示出令人满意的心理测量特性，并将英语原版翻译成德语和荷兰语已被证明是可靠和有效的。本研究的目的是测试瑞典语翻译的（WHY）MPI， MPI- s的可靠性和因素结构，并测试（WHY）MPI发现的因素结构的普遍性。我们使用Cronbach's alpha进行了内部一致性分析，并使用LISREL-8对682例慢性肌肉骨骼疼痛患者进行了验证性因子分析（CFA）。从上述人群中抽取的54个人的子样本完成了测试-重测试分析。MPI- s第1节和第2节的总体信度和稳定性较好，剔除4个条目后，因子结构与其他版本的MPI相似。对于第3节，尽管删除了5个问题，但提议的因素结构无法复制。清单的这一部分旨在衡量不同类型活动的程度，我们的结果表明，这一部分可能仅用于评估一般活动水平。我们的结论是，经过一些调整，MPI-S的第1节和第2节在其因素结构，可靠性和通用性方面产生了令人满意的结果。对于第3部分，假设的因素结构无法得到证实。(C) 1998国际疼痛研究协会。Elsevier Science B.V.出版
The psychological assessment of chronic pain is often accomplished using questionnaires such as the (West Haven-Yale) Multidimensional Pain Inventory ((WHY)MPI) which is constructed to capture the multidimensionality of chronic pain. The (WHY)MPI theoretically originates from behavioural and cognitive behavioural theories of pain. It is divided into three parts and measures psychosocial and behavioural consequences of pain. This questionnaire has displayed satisfactory psychometric properties and translations of the original English version into German and Dutch have been demonstrated to be reliable and valid. The aim of this study was to test the reliability and factor structure of a Swedish translation of the (WHY)MPI, the MPI-S, and also to test the generalisability of the factor structure found for the (WHY)MPI. We performed analyses of internal consistency using Cronbach's alpha, and carried out a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) employing LISREL-8 on a population of 682 patients suffering from chronic musculoskeletal pain. Test-retest analysis was accomplished on a sub-sample of 54 individuals taken from the aforementioned population. For sections 1 and 2 of the MPI-S the overall reliability and stability were good, and after the exclusion of four items, the factor structure was similar to other versions of the MPI. For section 3, despite removal of five questions, the proposed factor structure could not be replicated. This part of the inventory is designed to measure the extent of different types of activities, and our results suggest that this section may only be used for assessing general activity level. We conclude that, with a few adjustments, the analyses yielded satisfactory results for sections 1 and 2 of the MPI-S regarding its factor structure, reliability and generalisability. For section 3 the hypothesised factor structure could not be confirmed. (C) 1998 International Association for the Study of Pain. Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
