衡量健康状况作为个人、人口和社区健康的指标，对于缩小人口之间的健康差距至关重要。本研究的目的是测试健康状况问卷-12(HSQ-12)2.0版的心理测量学特性，这是一个在公共领域可用的简短的自我报告健康状况工具，在一个低收入样本(N=7,793)中。内部一致性信度为0.88。初步和验证性因素分析显示，两个因素解释了67%的差异，被解释为身心健康的超级量表。二阶因素分析分离出一个因素，可解释82%的方差，解释为总体健康状况。使用t检验和Mann-Whitney U检验对有残疾和无残疾的受试者进行比较，发现量表、超级量表和总量表的得分存在显著差异。HSQ-12是一种可靠、有效、低成本的健康状况测量工具。
Measuring health status as an indicator of individual, population, and community health is critical in reducing health disparities in populations. The purpose of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the Health Status Questionnaire-12 (HSQ-12) Version 2.0, a brief self-reported health status instrument available within the public domain, in a low-income sample (N = 7,793). The internal consistency reliability was .88. Initial and confirmatory factor analysis revealed two factors explaining 67% of the variance, interpreted as super scales of physical and mental health. Second order factor analysis isolated one factor explaining 82% of the variance, interpreted as a total health status. Comparison of subjects with and without disabilities using t tests and the Mann-Whitney U Test showed that the scale, super scale, and total scale scores differentiated significantly. The HSQ-12 is a reliable, valid, and low-cost measure of health status.
