The instruments we used were HUI23SU15Q, HUI23PU15Q and EQ5D. All of these instruments were self- or proxy-administered questionnaire surveys in which Japanese language versions became available recently. We conducted the coincidence measurement in 44 subjects and assessed the measurement properties of these instruments, and evaluated the subjects' health related quality of life. While the mean of the multi-attribute utility score using the proxy version of HUI was 0.17±0.23, in the self-administered version, it was 0.22±0.29. A significant relation was seen between the two scores of the self-administered and proxy version. The EQ-5D tariff score was higher than that of either version of HUI. The utility scores of HUI proxy version correlated with EQ-5D tariff score significantly, with simple correlation coefficient; r=0.472 (p=0.002), while HUl self administered version did not correlated with EQ-5D tariff score. In single attribute utility scores, cognition score was significantly correlated with MMSE score and it showed the construct validity of HUI. Our result showed the measurement properties of two Japanese version instruments of HRQOL assessment and the psychometric characteristics of the elderly with cognitive disorders.}, pages = {69--75}, title = {Measurement properties of Japanese HUI3 in cognitive retarded elderly samples}, volume = {3}, year = {2003} }
