The measure has demonstrated adequate reliability (Sirriyeh et al., 2012), although normative values associated with study quality are not currently available.
The measure has demonstrated adequate internal consistency, test retest reliability, and concurrent and discriminant validity (Oates & Gervai, submitted; Oates, Gervai, Danis, Lakatosb, & Davies, submitted).
The patients demonstrated adequate measures of anemia control and dialysis efficiency (Kt/ V).
Research has demonstrated adequate psychometric properties of this measure (see [ 9]).
Compared with conventional clinical measures of disease activity, functional and general health status, SASDAS have demonstrated adequate construct validity and was equally or more responsive to changes in disease activity than conventional composite measures.
The instrument has also demonstrated adequate discriminate and construct validity, correlates well with other measures of physical activity and is sensitive to change [ 52].
Several of these measuring tools have been able to detect clinical improvement and have demonstrated adequate reliability, validity, and sensitivity to change in observational studies, and some were found to be useful in randomized controlled trials.
The primary measure of treatment outcome was the NIMH Trichotillomania Severity Scale (NIMH-TSS) [ 22], which has demonstrated adequate psychometric properties in prior studies of TTM treatment [see [ 23]].
The questions used to measure neighbourhood social capital were adapted from a study on adolescents in Brazil, which demonstrated adequate internal consistency for the 30 items of the scale (Cronbach's alpha > 0.70) [ 14, 15].
These 13 items scale demonstrated adequate internal reliability with 0.896.
