Assessed the utility of the 166-item FAM with medical and psychiatric patients. FAM items were extracted from MMPI data of 60 female and 45 male patients classified into pain and psychiatric patients based on suspected disorder and referral questions. Although all correlations between FAM and MMPI mean T-scores on all scales were highly significant, 54% of the means were significantly different. The number and the nature of the difference between FAM and MMPI group means and individual profile classifications varied as a function of patient subgroup and sex. Such subgroup delineation of FAM accuracy is discussed as necessary for decisions about appropriate clinical and research utilization.
评估了包含166个条目的家庭适应量表（FAM）在医学和精神科患者中的效用。FAM条目是从60名女性和45名男性患者的明尼苏达多相人格调查表（MMPI）数据中提取的，这些患者根据疑似疾病和转诊问题被分为疼痛患者和精神科患者。尽管FAM与MMPI所有量表的平均T分数之间的所有相关性都非常显著，但54%的均值存在显著差异。FAM与MMPI组均值之间差异的数量和性质以及个体剖面图分类因患者亚组和性别而异。讨论了这种FAM准确性的亚组划分对于适当的临床和研究应用决策的必要性。
