Reliability and validity of the Faces and Word Descriptor Scales to measure pain in verbal children undergoing painful procedures were assessed. Test-retest reliability and construct and discriminant validity were supported for both instruments among a sample of 118 children in three age groups (3-7, 8-12, 13-18). Construct validity was determined by comparisons with a visual analogue scale and a numerical scale with known validity. A majority of the children preferred to use the Faces scale when providing self-report of pain regardless of age. The Faces and Word Descriptor Scales are valid and reliable instruments to measure procedural pain intensity.
评估了面部表情量表和文字描述量表在测量接受痛苦治疗的能言语儿童疼痛方面的信度和效度。在三个年龄组（3 - 7岁、8 - 12岁、13 - 18岁）的118名儿童样本中，两种工具的重测信度、结构效度和区分效度均得到支持。通过与具有已知效度的视觉模拟量表和数字量表进行比较来确定结构效度。无论年龄大小，大多数儿童在自我报告疼痛时更喜欢使用面部表情量表。面部表情量表和文字描述量表是测量治疗性疼痛强度的有效且可靠的工具。
