Abstract

Introduction

An updated summary of the most used instruments assessing auditory hallucinations in population with psychosis, allows us to underline the scarceness and need of Spanish versions of important instruments. The aim of the study is to examine the psychometric characteristics of two different and complementary instruments for assessing auditory hallucinations, the Spanish version of the Auditory Vocal Hallucination Scale (AVHRS) and the Spanish version of the Positive and Useful Voices Inquiry (PUVI).

Materials and methods

A sample of 68 patients from four different centres, with a DSM-IV diagnosis of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder presenting with auditory hallucinations were included. Apart from the AVHRS and the PUVI, the Psychotic Symptom Rating Scales-Auditory Hallucinations subscale (PSYRATS-AH) and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) were also administered to all patients, plus an acceptability questionnaire.

Results

The Spanish version of the AVHRS showed a good internal consistency, a moderate to high inter-rater reliability, a medium to moderate test–retest reliability, and a good convergent and discriminant validity. The Spanish version of the PUVI showed a good internal consistency and a heterogeneous, but in general moderate, test–retest reliability.

Conclusions

The Spanish versions of the AVHRS and the PUVI have good psychometric properties and are well accepted among patients.

精神病人群中不同的幻听测量方法。西班牙语版听觉幻听评定量表(AVHRS)和积极有用声音问卷(PUVI)的验证
一份最新的评估精神病患者幻听的最常用仪器的总结,使我们能够强调西班牙语版本重要仪器的稀缺和需求。本研究的目的是检验两种不同的、互补的评估幻听的工具的心理测量特征,西班牙语版的听觉幻觉量表(AVHRS)和西班牙语版的积极和有用的声音调查(PUVI)。材料和方法来自四个不同中心的68例患者样本,均被诊断为精神分裂症或分裂情感性障碍,并伴有幻听。除AVHRS和PUVI外,还对所有患者进行精神病症状评定量表-幻听子量表(PSYRATS-AH)和阳性和阴性综合征量表(PANSS),并进行可接受性问卷调查。结果西班牙语版AVHRS具有较好的内部一致性、中至高的量表间信度、中至中等的重测信度、较好的收敛效度和判别效度。西班牙语版本的PUVI表现出良好的内部一致性和异质性,但总体上中等,重测信度。结论西班牙语版AVHRS和PUVI具有良好的心理测量性能,为患者所接受。
