Geriatrics and Gerontology International, 10/28/09
Takai Y et al. – The ICC for inter–rater and test–retest reliability were 0.824 and 0.657, respectively. Internal consistency was 0.645 for the total sample and 0.719 for those with an MMSE score of 0. Multiple regression analysis showed that contractures, previous injuries, the MMSE and paralysis were independently associated with the APS–J. The APS–J and VDS were moderately correlated. The APS–J total score and subscales, "change in body language" and "physical changes", were significantly different among subjects with different MMSE score groups. Findings show some evidence for the reliability and validity of APS–J.
