Abstract

Introduction

Among the elderly, the availability of tool assessing psychosomatic syndromes is limited. The present study aims at testing inter-rater reliability and concurrent validity of the semi-structured interview for the Diagnostic Criteria for Psychosomatic Research (DCPR-R-SSI) in the elderly of the general population.

Method

One hundred eight subjects were recruited. Participants received a clinical assessment which included the DCPR-R-SSI, the Illness Attitude Scale (IAS), the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), the Psychosocial Index (PSI), the Toronto Alexithymia Scale-20 (TAS-20). Analyses of inter-rater reliability of DCPR-R-SSI and concurrent validity between DCPR-R-SSI and self-administered questionnaires were conducted.

Results

DCPR-R-SSI showed excellent inter-rater reliability with a percent of agreement of 90.7% (K Cohen: 0.856 [SE = 0.043], 95% CI: 0.77–0.94). DCPR-R demoralization showed fair concurrent validity with GDS; concurrent validity was also fair between DCPR-R Alexithymia and TAS-20, and between DCPR-R allostatic overload and PSI allostatic load, while the concurrent validity between DCPR-R Disease Phobia and IAS was moderate.

Conclusion

DCPR-R-SSI represents a reliable and valid tool to assess psychosomatic syndromes in the elderly. DCPR-R is in need of being implemented in the elderly clinical evaluation.

老年人心身研究诊断标准的临床特征

在老年人中，评估心身综合征的工具是有限的。本研究旨在检验半结构化访谈在普通老年人心身研究诊断标准(dpr -r - ssi)中的信度和并发效度。方法共招募受试者108例。参与者接受临床评估，包括dpr - r - ssi、疾病态度量表(IAS)、老年抑郁量表(GDS)、心理社会指数(PSI)、多伦多述情障碍量表-20 (TAS-20)。对dpr -r - ssi量表进行量表间信度分析，并对dpr -r - ssi量表与自填问卷的并发效度进行分析。结果dpr -r - ssi具有良好的评分间信度，一致性百分比为90.7% (K Cohen: 0.856 [SE = 0.043]， 95% CI: 0.77-0.94)。dpr - r消沉与GDS的并发效度尚可;dpr - r述情障碍与TAS-20、dpr - r适应负荷与PSI适应负荷之间的并发效度为中等，而dpr - r疾病恐惧症与IAS之间的并发效度为中等。结论dpr - r - ssi是一种可靠、有效的评估老年人心身综合征的工具。在老年临床评价中需要实施dpr - r。
