When 261 medical and surgical patients at a community hospital were asked to rank order 49 events related to the experience of hospitalization from most to least stressful, results indicated the subjects were capable and willing to order the events. Moreover, they showed a high degree of consensus as to how the events should be ordered. The rank order of these events provides a tool that can be used to quantify the measurement of psychosocial stress experienced by hospital patients.
当一家社区医院的261名内科和外科患者被要求将49项与住院体验相关的事件按压力程度从高到低进行排序时，结果表明这些受试者有能力且愿意对这些事件进行排序。此外，对于这些事件应如何排序，他们表现出了高度的一致性。这些事件的排序提供了一种工具，可用于量化医院患者所经历的心理社会压力。
