An eleven item clinician-administered Mania Rating Scale (MRS) is introduced, and its reliability, validity and sensitivity are examined. There was a high correlation between the scores of two independent clinicians on both the total score (0.93) and the individual item scores (0.66 to 0.92). The MRS score correlated highly with an independent global rating, and with scores of two other mania rating scales administered concurrently. The score also correlated with the number of days of subsequent stay in hospital. It was able to differentiate statistically patients before and after two weeks of treatment and to distinguish levels of severity based on the global rating.
引入了一个由临床医生实施的包含11个条目的躁狂评定量表（MRS），并对其信度、效度和敏感性进行了检验。两位独立临床医生在总分（0.93）和各个条目得分（0.66至0.92）上的评分之间存在高度相关性。MRS评分与独立的整体评定以及同时使用的其他两个躁狂评定量表的评分高度相关。该评分还与随后的住院天数相关。它能够在统计学上区分治疗两周前后的患者，并根据整体评定区分严重程度等级。
