The addiction severity index (ASI) is one of the most commonly used assessment devices used in the field of substance abuse. There is no research on the Chinese version of the newest scale in China so far. The study is to validate a Chinese adaptation of the fifth version of the ASI instrument.
The Chinese version of the ASI was translated and revised based on the fifth English version. Psychometric properties of the ASI were tested through face-to-face interviews. Five hundred and twenty-six patients who had been in the methadone maintenance treatment clinic in Xi'an City, Shanxi Province, for more than 3 months were interviewed by 3 trained interviewers. About 83% of the 526 interviewees were male. Analysis of internal consistency, reliability measures including test-retest and inter-rater correlation, and criterion validity were conducted.
Across 7 domains of the Chinese version of the ASI, Cronbach alpha coefficients ranged from 0.44 to 0.79, test-retest correlation coefficients ranged from 0.68 to 0.84, inter-rater correlations ranged from 0.74 to 0.98, and the criterion validity was 0.5.
The Chinese version of the ASI has acceptable reliability and validity in a sample of drug-dependent patients.
成瘾严重程度指数(ASI)是滥用药物领域中最常用的评估工具之一。目前,中国还没有关于该量表最新版本的中文版研究。本研究旨在验证 ASI 第五版的中文适应版本。
根据第五版英文版本,对 ASI 的中文版本进行翻译和修订。通过面对面访谈测试 ASI 的心理测量特性。对 526 名在陕西省西安市美沙酮维持治疗诊所接受治疗超过 3 个月的患者进行了访谈,由 3 名经过培训的访谈员进行。在这 526 名受访者中,约 83%为男性。进行了内部一致性分析、包括重测信度和评分者间信度在内的可靠性度量、以及标准效度分析。
在 ASI 的 7 个领域中,中文版的克朗巴赫 α系数范围为 0.44 至 0.79,重测相关系数范围为 0.68 至 0.84,评分者间相关系数范围为 0.74 至 0.98,标准效度为 0.5。
在吸毒患者样本中,ASI 的中文版具有可接受的信度和效度。
