The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) consists of a formalized clinical interview and 30 operationally defined items for psychopathology assessment. We report here on the psychometric equivalence of a Spanish language adaptation (PANSS-S), developed to facilitate minority group, multinational, and cross-cultural studies on schizophrenia. Two bilingual psychiatrists simultaneously rated 57 psychiatric inpatients using the PANSS (N = 20), PANSS-S (N = 20), or both methods (N = 17). The PANSS-S demonstrated sound interrater reliabilities (r = .93 for positive and .74 for negative syndrome, p less than .001), which were similar to those from the current PANSS assessment and original standardization studies. In support of criterion-related validity, the means and variance of the two instruments were comparable, and significant cross-correlations were obtained for the principal scales (r = .92 for positive and .83 for negative syndrome, p less than .0001), component symptoms, and five additional psychopathology clusters. The results suggest that the PANSS-S has psychometric properties resembling those of the PANSS and may be used interchangeably in a Spanish-speaking population.
阳性和阴性症状量表（PANSS）由一次规范化的临床访谈以及30个针对精神病理学评估的操作性定义项目组成。我们在此报告西班牙语版改编量表（PANSS-S）的心理测量等效性，该量表旨在促进针对精神分裂症的少数群体、跨国及跨文化研究。两位双语精神科医生同时使用PANSS（N = 20）、PANSS-S（N = 20）或两种方法（N = 17）对57名精神科住院患者进行评分。PANSS-S显示出良好的评分者间信度（阳性症状r = 0.93，阴性症状r = 0.74，p < 0.001），这与当前PANSS评估及原始标准化研究的结果相似。为支持与标准相关的效度，两种工具的均值和方差具有可比性，并且主要量表（阳性症状r = 0.92，阴性症状r = 0.83，p < 0.0001）、组成症状以及另外五个精神病理学类别均获得了显著的交叉相关性。结果表明，PANSS-S具有与PANSS相似的心理测量特性，并且在说西班牙语的人群中可以互换使用。
