To evaluate the psychometric properties and feasibility of using a Hebrew version of the SF-12 for community-dwelling elderly.
Four hundred and twenty-one people aged 70+ were interviewed in a longitudinal study, using the Barthel Index, GDS and SF-12.
Score distribution was satisfactory, with minimal missing data and item-to-item correlations were satisfactory. There were no floor and ceiling effects. Factor analysis yields the two-dimensional factors of physical and mental health and a third factor of physical role. Reliability of domain and the complete scores using the internal consistency method point to good internal consistency. Regarding construct validity of the scale, the mental health domain scores had a significant, negative relation with scores on the GDS and the physical health domain scores had a significant, positive relation with scores on the ADL scale and a significant, negative relation with scores on the IADL scale.
The Hebrew version of the SF-12 appears to be a practical instrument for use among the elderly population and the resulting health domains correlate highly with other measures of functional, physical, and mental health used for the elderly.
评估 SF-12 希伯来文版本在社区居住的老年人中的心理测量特性和可行性。
421 名 70 岁以上的人参加了一项纵向研究,使用 Barthel 指数、GDS 和 SF-12 进行访谈。
评分分布令人满意,数据缺失最少,项目间相关性良好。没有地板和天花板效应。因子分析得出身体和心理健康的两个二维因素,以及身体角色的第三个因素。使用内部一致性方法对领域和完整分数的可靠性表明具有良好的内部一致性。关于量表的结构有效性,心理健康领域的分数与 GDS 的分数呈显著负相关,身体健康领域的分数与 ADL 量表的分数呈显著正相关,与 IADL 量表的分数呈显著负相关。
SF-12 的希伯来文版本似乎是老年人实用的工具,得出的健康领域与其他用于老年人的功能、身体和心理健康测量高度相关。
