BKBin-Na Kim YSYongmin Shin JPJungkyu Park

Puntos clave

To clinically validate the Korean Altman Self-Rating Mania Scale's 5-item and 11-item versions.
Compared K-ASRM-5 and K-ASRM-11 for psychometric properties
Assessed utility for symptom monitoring
Examined treatment response in bipolar disorder
Both versions demonstrated comparable psychometric properties
K-ASRM-11 covers additional (hypo)manic symptoms
Impulsivity and irritability are significant for patients' quality of life

Resumen

Both the K-ASRM-5 and K-ASRM-11 demonstrated comparable levels of sound psychometric properties, which supports their continued usage in research and clinical practice. It is necessary to test potential utility of the K-ASRM-11 for symptom monitoring and treatment response because of its additional coverage of dark-side (hypo)manic symptoms, including irritability and impulsivity, which are considered important for the quality of life of patients with bipolar disorder.
