Abstract: Objectives: We tested the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the PANSS(PANSS-KV).\n\nMethods: The PANSS ratings were obtained from 101 subjects with DSM-�뀭 diagnoses of schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorder. To study the concurrent validity, the Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms(SAPS) and the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms(SANS) were also administrated in 38 patients. Using these data, inter-rater reliability, test-retest reliability, internal consistency, criterion validity and concurrent validity were evaluated. Factor structure \nwas analyzed by the principal axis factoring.\n\nResults: The inter-rater reliability of the Korean version of the PANSS was satisfactory in positive (r竊�0.92) and negative syndrome subscales(r竊�0.86), but somewhat low in general psychopathology subscale(r竊�0.78). The test-retest correlations for the 3 PANSS subscales ranged between 0.89 and 0.95, so it showed excellent test-retest reliability. The Cronbach's 慣 for the positive, negative and general psychopathology subscales were 0.73, 0.84 and 0.74, respectively and thus the 3 subscales of the PANSS had good internal consistencies. All separate items revealed significant corrected item-total correlations in the positive and negative syndrome subscales, but some items of the general psychopathology subscale showed no or low corrected item-total correlations. The positive and negative syndrome subscales held a high concurrent validity in relation to the SAPS and the SANS. It was confirmed that positive and negative syndromes were independent constructs. The factor analysis by the principal axis factoring produced 5 components竊쌵ognitive, excitement, depression, positive and negative.\n\nConclusion: These findings prove that the reliability and validity of the PANSS-KV are comparable to those of the original PANSS. So, the PANSS-KV can be widely and extensively used in researches for schizophrenia.
