Abstract |
This study evaluated the
internal consistency and test-retest reliability of Moos' Coping Response Inventory-Korean Version (CRI-K); as well as it's correlation with depressive symptoms in hospitalized patients. Fifty seven medical students and 66 hospitalized patients completed the CRI-K; and 45 medical students were retested a week later to evaluate test-retest reliability. Also; 66 patients completed CES-D for depressive symptoms. Scores of problem solving; acceptance and resignation; and emotional discharge subscales were higher in the female medical students; however; there was no difference in the subscales scores between male and female patients. The internal consistency of CRI-K subscales; measured by Cronbach alpha; ranged 0.46- 0.68 in the medical students and 0.41-0.64 among the patients. The test-retest reliability of CRI-K subscales in the medical students ranged 0.61-0.86 of Pearson correlation coefficient. CES-D scores in the patients were negatively correlated with approach coping responses and positively correlated with emotional discharge. The results suggest that CRI-K has respectable internal consistency and test-retest reliability; and could be a useful inventory to evaluate coping response in medical patients. |
