Abstract:
Objective To examine the reliability and validity of the Rating Scale of the Reliability in Mental Disorder Medical History (RSRMDMH) in order to develop a reliable measure to determine the reliability in mental disorder medical history.Methods RSRMDMH was conducted by concept,clinical feature in mental disorder medical history and assessment scales for malingering and compensationneurosis.Final 14 items was decided after initial usage and modification.It was administered to 600 subjects including the cases involved forensic problems,patients in general psychiatric clinic.Results ①The Cronbach' s α coefficients of RSRMDMH was 0.901.The split-half reliability was 0.803-0.924.The test-retest reliability and scorer reliability were more than 0.588 (P<0.01).②The cut score of assessing different degree of the reliability in mental disorder medical history separately was ≤ 11,12-22,≥23.③Based on the experts diagnosis,the accuracy rate of RSRMDMH for evaluating different degree of the reliability in mental disorder medical history were more than 86.1%,and total accuracy rate was 94.8%.④Correlation analysis showed significantly correlation between RSRMDMH and assessment scales for malingering(self-report scale of brief psychopathological symptoms,SBPS).Conclusion The RSRMDMH has acceptable psychometrics properties on reliability and validity.It is a clinically reliable measure to determine the reliability in mental disorder medical history.
