Criterion validity was explored correlating scores to the AI scale andpatients perceived health status. Discriminatory power was assessed using ANOVA. Temporal stability was explored in a sub-sample of patientswho responded at two time points, using a T-test to compare their mean scores... 2008 artículo científico 1885-642X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=69060302 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=690 Pharmacy Practice application/pdf Centro de investigaciones y Publicaciones Farmacéuticas Pharmacy Practice (España) Num.3 Vol.6 |
