Title: Is the Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales 2 a good tool to assess quality of life in Slovak patients with rheumatoid arthritis? | ||
Author: M. Sovariova Soosova, Z. Macejova | ||
Abstract: Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the measurement properties of the Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales 2 (AIMS2) in Slovak patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The Cronbach’s alpha coefficients for AIMS2 scales ranged from 0.78 to 0.94, the test-retest reliability was significant (p<0.05), ranging from 0.61 to 0.99. The correlations between most of the Slovak-AIMS2 scales and HAQ-DI, VAS, BAI and SDS were statistically significant (p<0.05). The principal component analysis identified three factor models explaining 66.82 % of the variance. |
