接受长期病对促进健康及改善长期病患者的生活质素十分重要。因此，需要一个可靠和有效的措施，接受这一人口。目前可用的接受措施并不特别侧重于接受慢性病。本研究对176名慢性病老年人进行了心理测量学研究，采用了一种适应性的接受措施-关于长期健康问题的想法（IALHP）问卷。虽然研究结果提供了初步的内部信度和结构效度的证据，以支持其潜在的有用性在老年人，进一步的规模发展建议。
Acceptance of chronic illness is important for health promotion and for improving the quality of life of elders with chronic conditions. Thus, a reliable and valid measure of acceptance is needed for this population. Currently available measures of acceptance do not focus specifically on accepting chronic conditions. This study of 176 elders with chronic conditions examined the psychometric properties of an adapted measure of acceptance - the Ideas about Long-standing Health Problems (IALHP) questionnaire. Although the findings provided beginning evidence for internal reliability and construct validity to support its potential usefulness in elders, further scale development is recommended.
