The reliability and usefulness of the Scale for Assessment of Thought, Language and Communication was evaluated in a group of psychotic in-patients. A very high interrater reliability (0.75-1.0) and an optimum rate-rerate reliability (0.50-1.0) were found on the individual items of the scale as well as the global rating. Since the scale has a good scope in different clinical and research settings, it was necessary to evaluate its reliability at a place other than where it originated. This study confirms its usefulness in the field of both clinical practice and research.
在一组精神病住院患者中评估了思维、语言和沟通评估量表的可靠性和实用性。发现该量表各个项目以及总体评分的评分者间信度非常高（0.75 - 1.0），再测信度也较为理想（0.50 - 1.0）。由于该量表在不同临床和研究环境中有广泛应用，因此有必要在其起源地以外的地方评估其可靠性。本研究证实了它在临床实践和研究领域的实用性。
