To evaluate the reliability of self-reporting chronic diseases in the baseline data of the Ravansar Non-Communicable Diseases (RaNCD) cohort study in Kermanshah province, western Iran.
The study was conducted in RaNCD cohort study. To assess the reliability of self-report of chronic disease, a random sample of 202 participants were asked about some of chronic conditions 30-35 days (mean = 32) after recruitment.
A range of kappa agreement between 39.52-100%, which the lower statistics was for hypertension and hepatitis and the higher one for cancer, cardiac ischemic, and diabetes.
The self-report of chronic diseases was relatively reliable. Therefore self-reporting data for some conditions can be used in situations where the validity is acceptable.
评估伊朗西部克尔曼沙阿省拉万萨尔非传染性疾病(RaNCD)队列研究基线数据中慢性病自我报告的可靠性。
该研究在RaNCD队列研究中进行。为评估慢性病自我报告的可靠性,在招募后30 - 35天(平均 = 32天)询问了202名参与者的随机样本有关一些慢性病情况。
kappa一致性范围在39.52% - 100%之间,其中高血压和肝炎的统计值较低,癌症、心脏缺血和糖尿病的统计值较高。
慢性病的自我报告相对可靠。因此,在效度可接受的情况下,某些情况的自我报告数据可被使用。
