MOS 36项简明健康调查表(SF-36)旨在测量临床和一般人群环境中的8个健康维度。本文的主要目的是检查该工具在年轻人的信度和效度。第二个目的是记录该文书的快速翻译程序的结果,以便以后与更全面的官方法语改编进行比较。1992年,瑞士日内瓦18-44岁的1007名居民回答了翻译后的调查(82%的回答率)。健康所有8个方面的完成率为95.5%。该仪器表现出良好的收敛性(100%)和判别(98%)的有效性对预设的标准。答复的间隔比例可以在某些项目中得到验证,但不是在所有项目中。Cronbach α(可靠性)系数范围为0.76至0.92。因子分析得出2个主成分,对应于心理和身体健康。16个健康维度和主成分之间的相关性中有13个在预先确定的范围内。独立的临床变量的验证也是,除了少数例外,与理论一致。因此,SF-36保留了良好的心理测量性能,即使在一个普遍非常健康的群体中使用。在资源有限的情况下,本研究中所采用的谨慎而快速的翻译程序可能是全面文化适应的有效替代方案。
The MOS 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) is designed to measure 8 dimensions of health in clinical and general population settings. The main aim of this paper was to examine the reliability and validity of this instrument in young adults. A secondary aim was to document the results of a rapid translation procedure of the instrument, to be compared later to the more thorough official French adaptation. The translated survey was answered in 1992 by 1007 residents of Geneva, Switzerland, 18-44 years old, identified from health insurance rolls (82% response rate). Completion rate for all 8 dimensions of health was 95.5%. The instrument demonstrated excellent covergent (100%) and discriminant (98%) validity against pre-set criteria. interval scaling of responses could be verified in some, but not all, items. Cronbach alpha (reliability) coefficients ranged from 0.76 to 0.92. Factorial analysis yielded 2 principal components, corresponding to mental and physical health. Thirteen of 16 correlations between health dimensions and principal components were within a pre-established range. Validation by independent clinical variables was also, with few exceptions, consistent with theory. Thus the SF-36 retained excellent psychometric properties even when used in a generally very healthy group. The careful but rapid translation procedure used in this study may be an effective alternative to full-scale cultural adaptations when resources are limited.
