Validation and Discriminant Analysis of the Athens Insomnia Scale in Older Adults
Objective
This study aimed to validate and discriminate the “Athens Insomnia Scale” in aged.
Methods
Patients were assessed using the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) and the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The internal consistency of the AIS was assessed using the Cronbach alpha coefficient. For validity analyses, the scale's structure validity was evaluated using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Besides, known group analyses were performed for demographic features such as age and education variables, and diagnostic groups were analyzed.
Results
Cronbach's alpha of AIS was found to be 0.881. In the CFA, the goodness of fit indices of the two-factor model was found to be significant, which supported the two-dimension structure as a nocturnal sleep problem and its effects on daytime dysfunction. A high correlation was observed between the AIS and the PSQI. It was determined that the discrimination of the > 65 patients from the < 65 patients with AIS was very high, with the discriminating item “frequent nighttime awakenings” in older adults (Wilks' lambda = 0.874).
Conclusion
The Athens Insomnia Scale is a practical, reliable, and useful tool for evaluating insomnia symptoms in older adults. Its two-dimensional structure distinguishes nocturnal sleep problems and their effects on daytime functionality.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research (MPR) publishes high-standard original research of a technical, methodological, experimental and clinical nature, contributing to the theory, methodology, practice and evaluation of mental and behavioural disorders. The journal targets in particular detailed methodological and design papers from major national and international multicentre studies. There is a close working relationship with the US National Institute of Mental Health, the World Health Organisation (WHO) Diagnostic Instruments Committees, as well as several other European and international organisations.
MPR aims to publish rapidly articles of highest methodological quality in such areas as epidemiology, biostatistics, generics, psychopharmacology, psychology and the neurosciences. Articles informing about innovative and critical methodological, statistical and clinical issues, including nosology, can be submitted as regular papers and brief reports. Reviews are only occasionally accepted.
MPR seeks to monitor, discuss, influence and improve the standards of mental health and behavioral neuroscience research by providing a platform for rapid publication of outstanding contributions. As a quarterly journal MPR is a major source of information and ideas and is an important medium for students, clinicians and researchers in psychiatry, clinical psychology, epidemiology and the allied disciplines in the mental health field.
