The 63-item Duke UNC Health Profile assesses four dimensions of health status: presence of symptoms, physical function, social function, and emotional function. This instrument was developed for use in primary care research. We have tested its value in a primary care setting among individuals with suspected increased risk of health problems. In a group of 65 white adults with high life changes and weak social supports, this scale produced relatively stable functional status scores over fifteen months. In addition, functional status scores derived from this instrument were strongly correlated with cumulative six-month self-reported morbidity. These findings suggest that the Duke-UNC Health Profile is an acceptably reliable and valid measure of health status for adults with high psychosocial risk of health impairment.
包含63个条目的杜克大学北卡罗来纳大学健康状况量表评估健康状况的四个维度：症状的存在、身体功能、社会功能和情感功能。该工具是为初级保健研究而开发的。我们已经在初级保健环境中对有健康问题风险增加嫌疑的个体测试了其价值。在一组65名生活变化大且社会支持薄弱的白人成年人中，该量表在15个月内产生了相对稳定的功能状态得分。此外，从该工具得出的功能状态得分与累积六个月自我报告的发病率密切相关。这些发现表明，对于有心理社会健康受损高风险的成年人来说，杜克大学北卡罗来纳大学健康状况量表是一种可靠性和有效性均可接受的健康状况测量工具。
