急性呼吸道感染（阿里斯）是儿科门诊最常见的疾病。这方面的研究因缺乏有效的农业影响评价措施而受到阻碍。本研究的目的是评估威斯康星州儿童上呼吸道症状调查（WURSS-K）的可靠性和有效性，WURSS-K是一种15项工具，用于测量ARI期间疾病特异性症状和对生活质量的影响。WURSS-K对两个人群进行了管理：1）从当地社区招募的4-10岁儿童，2）正在进行的城市环境和儿童哮喘研究中的9岁和10岁儿童。总体而言，163名儿童（249次ARI发作）完成了WURSS-K。使用多个模型分析WURSS-K，以评估双因素结构（症状和功能）和单一整体结构的信度和效度。这些模型提供了可靠性和有效性的证据，ω为0.72和0.91的症状和功能沿着与ω为0.90的单一结构。WURSS-K无论是作为一个单一的全球因素或两个因素结构的效度和信度表现出较强的心理测量特性。该仪器将是有用的治疗试验和观察性研究中的儿童ARI在门诊设置。
Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are the most common illness seen in the pediatric ambulatory setting. Research in this area is hampered by the lack of validated ARI measures. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability and validity of the Wisconsin Upper Respiratory Symptom Survey for Kids (WURSS-K), a 15-item instrument, which measures illness specific symptoms and impact on quality of life during an ARI. WURSS-K was administered to two populations: 1) children age 4–10 years recruited from the local community and 2) 9 and 10-year-old children from an ongoing study, the Urban Environment and Childhood Asthma. Overall, 163 children with 249 ARI episodes completed WURSS-K. WURSS-K was analyzed using multiple models to evaluate reliability and validity for a two-factor structure (symptom and functionality) and a single global structure. These models provided evidence of reliability and validity with omega of 0.72 and 0.91 for symptoms and functionality along with the single structure with omega of 0.90. WURSS-K shows strong psychometric properties for validity and reliability as either a single global factor or a two-factor structure. This instrument will be useful in both therapeutic trials and observational studies among children with ARI in ambulatory settings.
