BACKGROUND
In this study, we examined the construct validity, concurrent validity concerning other standard scales, intrarater reliability, and changes in scores at 12 weeks of the previously developed ABC Dementia Scale (ABC-DS), a novel assessment tool for Alzheimer's disease (AD).
METHODS
Data were obtained from 312 patients diagnosed with either AD or mild cognitive impairment. The scores on the ABC-DS and standard scales were compared.
RESULTS
The 13 items of the ABC-DS are grouped into three domains, and the domain-level scores were highly correlated with the corresponding conventional scales. Statistically significant changes in assessment scores after 12 weeks were observed for the total ABC-DS scores.
CONCLUSION
Our results demonstrate the ABC-DS to have good validity and reliability, and its usefulness in busy clinical settings.
背景
在本研究中，我们检验了先前开发的用于阿尔茨海默病（AD）的新型评估工具——ABC痴呆量表（ABC-DS）的结构效度、与其他标准量表的同时效度、评分者内信度以及12周时的评分变化。
方法
数据来自312例被诊断为AD或轻度认知障碍的患者。比较了ABC-DS和标准量表的得分。
结果
ABC-DS的13个项目分为三个领域，领域水平得分与相应的传统量表高度相关。ABC-DS总分在12周后观察到评估得分有统计学意义的变化。
结论
我们的结果表明ABC-DS具有良好的效度和信度，且在繁忙的临床环境中有用。
