背景本研究的目的是通过将其与另一种类似但更详细的回顾性测量方法以及在青春期后期收集的数据进行比较，来测试病前适应量表（PAS）的预测有效性和并发有效性。研究方法：我们比较了91名精神分裂症或情感障碍男性的PAS青春期晚期评分（年龄16-18岁）与青春期收集的行为数据，在第一次精神病发作之前作为标准化Draft Board筛查的一部分，并在成年期间重新进行相同的测量，并修改以回顾性地再次收集相同的数据。结果如下：PAS社会退缩和社会关系项目与社会行为量表的草案委员会的相关性分别为0.76和0.80，同时评级和0.52和0.53，分别为17岁时收集的数据。PAS学校成绩和学校适应项目与结构化环境规模的功能草案委员会的相关性分别为0.71和0.72，同时评级和0.43和0.47，分别为17岁时收集的数据。结论：我们的研究结果支持预测和并行有效性的PAS和有效性的自我报告的数据对精神分裂症患者发病前的功能。
Background. The aim of the current study was to test the predictive and concurrent validity of the Premorbid Adjustment Scale (PAS) by comparing it with another similar but more elaborate retrospective measure and with data collected during late adolescence. Methods: We compared PAS late adolescence scores (age 16-18 years) of 91 males with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder with data on behavior collected in adolescence, before the first psychotic episode as part of standardized Draft Board screening, and with the same measure readministered during adulthood and modified to collect the same data again retrospectively. Results: The correlation of the PAS social withdrawal and social relations items with the social behavior scale of the Draft Board were .76 and .80, respectively, for the concurrent ratings and .52 and .53, respectively, for the data collected at age 17 years. The correlation of the PAS school achievements and school adjustment items with the functioning in structured environments scale of the Draft Board were .71 and .72, respectively, for the concurrent ratings and .43 and .47, respectively, for the data collected at age 17 years. Conclusions: Our results support the predictive and concurrent validity of the PAS and the validity of self-reported data on premorbid functioning in persons with schizophrenia.
