介绍月经窘迫问卷(MDQ)的研制。839名女性中的每一位在最近一次月经周期的月经、经前和月经间期以及最糟糕的月经周期中分别对47种症状的经历进行了6分制的评分。47个症状相互关联，每个阶段分别进行因素分析，从每个分析中提取了8个基本重复的因素。这些因素代表着独立但经验上相互关联的症状群，被标记为疼痛、注意力、行为变化、自主神经反应、水分保持、消极情绪、觉醒和控制。这八组症状的得分与年龄和产次略有关联。这些分数不受女性填写问卷时所处的特定月经周期阶段或女性自出现症状以来的时间长短的影响。月经周期症状-图形描述妇女的月经症状被构建和图解。讨论了测量月经周期症状学的标准方法的必要性和实用性。
: The development of a Menstrual Distress Questionnaire (MDQ) is described. Each of 839 women rated their experience of 47 symptoms on a six-point scale separately for the menstrual, premenstrual, and intermenstrual phases of her most recent menstrual cycle and for her worst menstrual cycle. The 47 symptoms were intercorrelated and factor analyzed separately for each phase, and eight basically replicated factors were extracted from each of these analyses. These factors, which represent separate but empirically intercorrelated clusters of symptoms, were labeled pain, concentration, behavioral change, autonomic reactions, water retention, r gative affect, arousal, and control. Scores on these eight clusters of symptoms were slightly correlated with age and parity. The scores were not affected by the specific menstrual cycle phase a woman was in when filling out the questionnaire or by the length of time since the woman had experienced the symptoms. Menstrual cycle symptom-profiles graphically depicting a woman's menstrual symptomatology were constructed and illustrated. The need for and utility of standard methods with which to measure menstrual cycle symptomatology is discussed.
