Abstract:

BACKGROUND: A substantial proportion of children have a physical illness; these children commonly experience physical-mental comorbidity. To assess child mental health, brief scales that can be used in clinical and research settings are needed. This study assessed the validity and reliability of parent-reported Ontario Child Health Study Emotional Behavioural Scale-Brief Version (OCHS-EBS-B) scores. METHODS: Data come from a longitudinal study of children aged 2-16 years with a physical illness recruited from outpatient clinics at a pediatric hospital. Confirmatory factor analysis and McDonald's coefficient assessed the factor structure and internal consistency reliability of the OCHS-EBS-B, respectively. Point biserial correlations assessed agreement between the OCHS-EBS-B and Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview for Children and Adolescents (MINI-KID), a structured diagnostic interview. The Wilcoxon rank sum test compared OCHS-EBS-B scores between children with versus without physical-mental comorbidity (known-group validity). RESULTS: The three-factor structure of the OCHS-EBS-B was replicated in this sample of children with physical illness (χ(2) = 196.23(272), p < 0.001; CFI = 0.98; TLI = 0.98; SRMR = 0.06; RMSEA [90% CI] = 0.034 [0.027, 0.044]). It had excellent internal consistency reliability (ω = 0.86-0.92) and was moderately correlated with the MINI-KID (baseline: r(pb) = 0.43-0.51; 6 months: r(pb) = 0.55-0.65). OCHS-EBS-B scores were significantly higher among children with versus without physical-mental comorbidity. CONCLUSIONS: Findings confirm psychometric evidence that the OCHS-EBS-B is a valid and reliable measure of mental health in children with chronic physical illness. Its brevity and robust psychometric properties make the OCHS-EBS-B a strong candidate for routine use in integrated pediatric physical and mental health services.

Validation of a new risk assessment tool: the Brief Risk Questionnaire

Type: Journal Article

Authors: T. Jones, S. Lookatch, T. Moore

Year: 2015

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: Opioids remain a common method of treating chronic pain conditions despite some controversy. In an effort to address some of the risks of opioid medications, opioid risk assessment has become a standard of care when opioids are used to treat a chronic pain condition. Research to date has found that many currently available patient-completed written questionnaires are relatively poor at identifying which patients will engage in medication aberrant behavior in the future. Clinical interview techniques have been found to provide better prediction, but practitioners often prefer the convenience of patient-completed tools. In this study, a new brief patient-completed risk tool, the Brief Risk Questionnaire (BRQ), was created and compared with a structured clinical interview and two commonly used patient-completed risk assessment tools: the Opioid Risk Tool (ORT) and Screener and Opioid Assessment for Patients with Pain-Revised (SOAPP-R). The different risk assessment measures were administered to 454 patients at a pain clinic and their prediction of medication aberrant behavior at 6-month follow-up was compared. Results found that the BRQ was able to predict future medication aberrant behavior better than the other two patient-completed risk measures and almost as well overall as a structured clinical interview rating system. This study indicates that the BRQ could be a useful new tool for clinicians in conducting opioid risk assessment.

Validation of an Expanded Measure of Integrated Care Provider Fidelity: PPAQ-2

Type: Journal Article

Authors: G. P. Beehler, J. S. Funderburk, P. R. King, K. Possemato, J. A. Maddoux, W. R. Goldstein, M. Wade

Year: 2019

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: This study aimed to validate the factor structure of the expanded Primary Care Behavioral Health Provider Adherence Questionnaire (PPAQ-2), which is designed to assess provider fidelity to both the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) and collaborative care management (CCM) models of integrated primary care. Two-hundred fifty-three integrated care providers completed self-reports of professional background, perceptions of clinic integration and related practice barriers, and the PPAQ-2. Confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to assess the theorized factor structure and criterion validity was assessed through correlational analysis. Factor analyses demonstrated adequate fit with the data and acceptable to excellent composite reliabilities across five PCBH domains and five CCM domains. Validity was demonstrated by correlations between adherence scores and measures of clinic integration and barriers to fidelity. The PPAQ-2 is a psychometrically sound measure that can be used in future integrated care dismantling studies to identify provider behaviors that best predict patient outcomes.

Validation of the "problematic use of narcotics" (PUN) screening test for drug using adolescents

Type: Journal Article

Authors: K. Okulicz-Kozaryn, J. Sieroslawski

Year: 2007

Publication Place: England

Abstract: The aim of the study was to examine psychometric properties of the PUN screening test concerning illicit drug problem use by adolescents. The criterion standard for the test's validity was a diagnostic interview conducted by trained specialists. Respondents were reached by snowball sampling in 58 randomly chosen Polish local communities. A total of 1344 adolescent (37% female) aged 13 to 18 years, who used any illicit drug at least once in the past 12 months, participated. The majority (89%) had no contacts with any drug therapy facilities. 41% were diagnosed as occasional drug users and 59% as problematic users or dependents. Logistic regression analysis showed that 10 out of the basic set of 25 test items were most powerful in differentiating occasional and problematic users. A test score of 2 or higher was optimal for identifying problem drug use (sensitivity: 0.88, specificity: 0.79, PPV: 0.86, NPV: 0.81). Validity was not affected by age or sex. These results confirmed the PUN test potential as a brief screening tool.

Type: Journal Article

Authors: E. Fombonne, L. Heavey, L. Smeeth, L. C. Rodrigues, C. Cook, P. G. Smith, L. Meng, A. J. Hall

Year: 2004

Publication Place: England

Abstract: BACKGROUND: We report on the validity of the computerized diagnoses of autism in a large case-control study investigating the possible association between autism and the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine in the UK using the General Practitioner Research Database (GPRD). We examined anonymized copies of all relevant available clinical reports, including general practitioners' (GP) notes, consultant, speech therapy and educational psychologists reports, on 318 subjects born between 1973 and 1997 with a diagnosis of autism or a related disorder recorded in their electronic general practice record. METHODS: Data were abstracted to a case validation form allowing for the identification of developmental symptoms relevant to the diagnosis of pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs). Information on other background clinical and familial features was also abstracted. A subset of 50 notes was coded independently by 2 raters to derive reliability estimates for key clinical characteristics. RESULTS: For 294 subjects (92.5%) the diagnosis of PDD was confirmed after review of the records. Of these, 180 subjects (61.2%) fulfilled criteria for autistic disorder. The mean age at first recording of a PDD diagnosis in the GPRD database was 6.3 years (SD = 4.6). Consistent with previous estimates, the proportion of subjects experiencing regression in the course of their development was 19%. Inter-rater reliability for the presence of a PDD diagnosis was good (kappa =.73), and agreement on clinical features such as regression, age of parental recognition of first symptoms, language delay and presence of epilepsy was also good (kappas ranging from.56 to 1.0). CONCLUSIONS: This study provides evidence that the positive predictive value of a diagnosis of autism recorded in the GPRD is high.

Validation of the revised Screener and Opioid Assessment for Patients with Pain (SOAPP-R)

Type: Journal Article

Authors: S. F. Butler, K. Fernandez, C. Benoit, S. H. Budman, R. N. Jamison

Year: 2008

Publication Place: United States

Abstract: UNLABELLED: The original Screener and Opioid Assessment for Patients with Pain (SOAPP) is a conceptually derived self-report questionnaire designed to predict aberrant medication-related behaviors among chronic pain patients considered for long-term opioid therapy. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate an empirically derived version of the SOAPP (SOAPP-R) that addresses some limitations of the original SOAPP. In successive steps, items were reduced from an initial pool of 142 to a 97-item beta version. The beta version was administered to 283 chronic pain patients receiving long-term opioid therapy. Items were evaluated based on data collected at follow-up, including correlation with the Aberrant Drug Behavior Index (ADBI), derived from interview data, physician ratings, and urine toxicology screens. Twenty-four items were retained and comprise the final SOAPP-R. Coefficient alpha was .88, and receiver operating characteristics curve analysis yielded an area under the curve of .81 (P < .001). A cutoff score of 18 showed adequate sensitivity (.81) and specificity (.68). The obtained psychometrics, along with the use of a predictive criterion that goes beyond self-report, suggest that the SOAPP-R is an improvement over the original version in screening risk potential for aberrant medication-related behavior among persons with chronic pain. PERSPECTIVE: There is a need for a screener for abuse risk in patients prescribed opioids for pain. This study presents a revised version of the SOAPP-R that is empirically derived with good reliability and validity but is less susceptible to overt deception than the original SOAPP version 1.
