The Attempted and Actual Assault Scale (Attacks) was designed to record the nature and severity of inpatient assaults. To explore the psychometric properties of the Scale, a videotape of interpersonal assaults was compiled with clips from regular television broadcasts. During a meeting of the European Violence in Psychiatry Research Group (EVIPRG), 22 members from 14 different countries were instructed to rate the videotaped assaults on both the MOAS and the Attacks. Inter-rater reliability--in terms of intra-class correlation coefficients--was 0.70 for Attacks and 0.48 for MOAS severity scores. Attacks severity scores turned out to be significantly associated with the judgments of the raters about the severity of the observed assaults (Spearman's rho = 0.70). It is concluded that the psychometric properties of the newly developed Attacks are promising.
未遂与实际攻击量表(Attacks)旨在记录住院患者攻击行为的性质和严重程度。为探究该量表的心理测量特性,用常规电视广播中的片段编制了一段人际攻击行为的录像带。在欧洲精神病学暴力研究小组(EVIPRG)的一次会议上,来自14个不同国家的22名成员被要求对录像中的攻击行为在MOAS和Attacks量表上进行评分。评分者间信度——以组内相关系数衡量——Attacks量表为0.70,MOAS严重程度量表为0.48。结果表明,Attacks严重程度评分与评分者对观察到的攻击行为严重程度的判断显著相关(斯皮尔曼等级相关系数rho = 0.70)。结论是,新开发的Attacks量表的心理测量特性很有前景。
