The purpose of the study was to investigate if a questionnaire sent by mail can give a reliable assessment of outcome on the Glasgow Outcome Scale. A questionnaire was developed for the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) and a second questionnaire for the Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE). The questionnaires were self-contained and designed to be completed by either a head-injured person or a proxy. The questionnaires were studied in two ways: each questionnaire was administered twice (at an interval of approximately 2 weeks), and ratings from the postal questionnaires were compared to ratings from a structured interview conducted by telephone. The four studies were carried out in separate groups of head-injured participants consisting of 32-38 individuals. For the test-retest comparison, k(w) (quadratic weights) was 0.94 for the GOS questionnaire and 0.98 for the GOSE questionnaire. For the comparison with the telephone interview, k(w) was 0.67 for the GOS and 0.92 for the GOSE. The values of k(w) indicate good agreement for all comparisons. We conclude that it is possible to obtain reliable outcome data after head injury using postal questionnaires.
本研究的目的是调查通过邮寄方式发放的问卷能否对格拉斯哥预后量表的结果进行可靠评估。针对格拉斯哥预后量表（GOS）编制了一份问卷，针对扩展格拉斯哥预后量表（GOSE）编制了第二份问卷。这些问卷内容完整，设计为由颅脑损伤患者本人或代理人填写。对问卷进行了两种方式的研究：每份问卷均发放两次（间隔约2周），并将邮寄问卷的评分与电话结构化访谈的评分进行比较。四项研究分别在由32 - 38名个体组成的不同颅脑损伤参与者组中进行。对于重测比较，GOS问卷的k(w)（二次权重）为0.94，GOSE问卷为0.98。对于与电话访谈的比较，GOS的k(w)为0.67，GOSE为0.92。k(w)值表明所有比较的一致性良好。我们得出结论，使用邮寄问卷能够获得颅脑损伤后的可靠预后数据。
