To assess the reliability of short versions of the Australian National University Alzheimer's Disease Risk Index (ANU-ADRI).
A short form of the ANU-ADRI (ANU-ADRI-SF) was developed by assessing risk and protective factors with single questions where possible and with short forms of sub-questionnaires where available. The tick box form of the ANU-ADRI (ANU-ADRI-TB) was developed with unique questions for each risk and protective factor for Alzheimer's disease. The short versions were evaluated in an independent community sample of 504 participants with a mean age of 45.01 (SD = 14.85, range = 18-81).
The short versions demonstrated high reliabilities when compared with the ANU-ADRI. However, the proportion of misclassification was high for some risk factors and particularly for the ANU-ADRI-TB.
The ANU-ADRI-SF may be considered if less reliable questions from the ANU-ADRI-SF can be replaced with more reliable questions from the ANU-ADRI for risk/protective factors with high misclassification.
评估澳大利亚国立大学阿尔茨海默病风险指数（ANU - ADRI）简版的可靠性。
通过尽可能用单个问题评估风险和保护因素，并在可用时使用子问卷简版来开发ANU - ADRI简版（ANU - ADRI - SF）。ANU - ADRI勾选框形式（ANU - ADRI - TB）是针对阿尔茨海默病的每个风险和保护因素设置独特问题而开发的。在一个由504名参与者组成的独立社区样本中对这些简版进行了评估，参与者的平均年龄为45.01岁（标准差=14.85，范围=18 - 81岁）。
与ANU - ADRI相比，这些简版表现出较高的可靠性。然而，某些风险因素的错误分类比例较高，尤其是ANU - ADRI - TB。
对于错误分类率高的风险/保护因素，如果可以用ANU - ADRI中更可靠的问题替换ANU - ADRI - SF中可靠性较低的问题，则可以考虑使用ANU - ADRI - SF。
