Abstract

ABSTRACT Quality of life for people who use forensic mental health services has been the topic of increased empirical and clinical interest in recent years. Despite this, no well-validated quality of life measure exists for use with this specific clinical population in the UK. The Forensic Quality of Life Questionnaire – Short Version (FQL-SV) is a psychometrically valid quality of life measure developed in the Netherlands and translated into English. The current study aimed to explore the validity of the English version of the FQL-SV (EFQL-SV) using a think aloud and concurrent probing cognitive interviewing procedure. Fifteen service users participated from UK-based forensic mental health services. Comprehension of the EFQL-SV was evaluated systematically. and findings indicated that the most significant difficulty for participants was the understanding of the wording of EFQL-SV items. This meant that the EFQL-SV was limited in the extent to which it measured what it purports to. A number of revisions to the EFQL-SV have been proposed but require further validation. We have titled the adapted measure the UK Forensic Quality of Life – Short Version.
英国法医生活质量问卷(UKFQL-SV)的认知访谈验证
近年来,使用法医心理健康服务的人的生活质量一直是经验和临床兴趣增加的主题。尽管如此,在英国,还没有一种经过良好验证的生活质量测量方法适用于这一特定的临床人群。法医生活质量问卷-简短版(FQL-SV)是一种心理计量学上有效的生活质量测量,在荷兰开发并翻译成英语。本研究旨在通过出声思考和并发探索性认知访谈程序来探讨英语版本的FQL-SV (EFQL-SV)的有效性。来自英国法医心理健康服务机构的15名服务使用者参与了调查。对EFQL-SV的理解程度进行系统评价。调查结果显示,被试最显著的困难是对EFQL-SV项目措辞的理解。这意味着EFQL-SV在测量它所声称的东西的程度上是有限的。已经对EFQL-SV提出了若干修订,但需要进一步验证。我们已经命名为适应措施英国法医生活质量-短版本。
