Konfirmatorische Prüfung der Skalenstruktur des SF-12 Version 2.0 in einer deutschen bevölkerungs-repräsentativen Stichprobe
Zusammenfassung. Der Short Form Health Survey SF-12 Fragebogen ist die Kurzform des krankheitsübergreifenden Short Form SF-36 Health Survey, der zur generischen Erfassung der gesundheitsbezogenen Lebensqualität eingesetzt wird. Die 12 Items des SF-12 erlauben die Bildung eines körperlichen und eines psychischen Summenwertes. Mittels konkurrierender konfirmatorischer Strukturmodelle wurden auf Basis der Daten einer für Deutschland repräsentativen Normstichprobe von N = 2 524 Personen 3 theoriebasierte bzw. in der Literatur berichtete Modellvarianten geprüft. Nach Modifikation des Messmodells des psychischen Faktors konnte eine gute Datenpassung des zweidimensionalen Modells erreicht werden …

Association of Physical Morbidity and Health-Related Quality of Life in a Representative Sample of Older German People
Abstract. The association between health-related quality of life (HRQoL; Short-Form Health Survey-12; SF-12) and patient-reported morbidity-related symptoms measured by the Patient Health Questionnaire-15 (PHQ-15) is analyzed in a representative sample of older people in the general German population. Data from 1,659 people aged 60 to 85 years were obtained. Latent class analysis identified six classes of patients, which optimally categorize clusters of physical symptoms the participants reported: musculoskeletal impairments (39.8%), healthy (25.7%), musculoskeletal and respiratory/cardiac impairments (12.8%), musculoskeletal and respiratory impairments, along with bowel and digestion prob…
