“…35 The tool has good test-retest reliability and internal consistency both overall (0.89) and for the identified subscales (0.65-0.81). 36 It shows sensitivity to changes in functioning and symptoms 37 and has been used as a comparative measure in the validation of recovery and outcomes measures, 38,39 for example, in validating the Japanese version of the RAS, where it significantly negatively correlated with the RAS. 40 It has also been used in the assessment of recovery and rehabilitation-based interventions, treatments and programmes.…”

The Individual Recovery Outcomes Counter: preliminary validation of a personal recovery measure

Aims and methodThe Individual Recovery Outcomes Counter (I.ROC) is to date the only recovery outcomes instrument developed in Scotland. This paper describes the steps taken to initially assess its validity and reliability, including factorial analysis, internal consistency and a correlation benchmarking analysis.ResultsThe I.ROC tool showed high internal consistency. Exploratory factor analysis indicated a two-factor structure comprising intrapersonal recovery (factor 1) and interpersonal recovery (factor 2), explaining between them over 50% of the variance in I.ROC scores. There were no redundant items and all loaded on at least one of the factors. The I.ROC significantly correlated with widely used existing instruments assessing both personal recovery and clinical outcomes.Clinical implicationsI.ROC is a valid and reliable measure of recovery in mental health, preferred by service users when compared with well-established instruments. It could be used in clinical settings to map individual recovery, providing feedback for service users and helping to assess service outcomes.

“…Investigators have found acceptable internal consistency estimates for the subscales (Chow, Snowden, & McConnell, 2001;Hoffman, Capelli, & Mastrianni, 1997). Test-retest reliability coefficients have ranged from 0.65 to 0.85 (Eisen, Dill, & Grob, 1994). Researchers have found evidence of criterion validity (Eisen et al, 1994) and discriminant validity (Eisen, Wilcox, Leff, Schaefer, & Culhane, 1999).…”

This study examined the efficacy of a Mental Health Treatment Court (MHTC) with diversion to treatment supported by an assertive community treatment (ACT) model of case management. A total of 235 participants were randomly assigned to either MHTC or treatment as usual (TAU) and assessed over a 2 year period. It was hypothesized that participants in the MHTC would decrease their criminal activity and improve their psychosocial functioning relative to participants receiving TAU. While there were offenders for whom neither treatment was effective, a majority in both groups decreased jail days and improved psychosocial functioning, with MHTC participants demonstrating greater gains in most areas. The impact of implementing the MHTC on community practices, and the value of integrating criminal justice and mental health systems, is discussed.

“…A structured interview was used to obtain information regarding demographics, details of the domestic abuse, prior mental health and trauma history, and included four standardized measures: the Behavior and Symptom Identification Scale (BASIS-32; Eisen et al, 1994) to determine pre-abuse functioning; the Conflict Tactics Scale-2 (CTS-2; Straus et al, 1996) to assess the frequency and severity of physical assault, injury, sexual abuse, and psychological aggression in the relationship (items were added to assess sexual coercion); the Sexual Abuse Exposure Questionnaire (SAEQ; Rowan et al, 1994) for childhood and adulthood events (coded dichotomously); and the Assessing Environments-III-Physical Punishment Scale (AE-III-PP; Berger et al, 1988) which measures a range of childhood physical discipline events. The number of times participants had been a victim of an interpersonal crime in adulthood and childhood (e.g., physical assault, robbery) was determined.…”

Background and methods-Factors contributing to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and comorbid major depression (MDD) were investigated among female victims of intimate partner violence (IPV).Results-High levels of PTSD (75% of the sample) and MDD (54% of the sample) were observed. Individuals with both PTSD and MDD reported significantly greater levels of PTSD and depression symptoms than individuals with either PTSD alone or without major psychopathology. Individuals with comorbid PTSD and MDD had more maladaptive depressogenic cognitive styles than individuals without PTSD. The three groups were comparable in terms of pre-abuse mental health, childhood trauma history, and relationship violence variables and injuries. Maladaptive schemas did not contribute to the identification of comorbidity caseness, whereas PTSD severity and prior trauma did. Psychological aggression by an abuser and PTSD severity accounted for 52% of the variance in depressive symptoms.Limitations-Cross-sectional design and lack of trauma-specific cognitive measures.Conclusions-The findings confirm that comorbid PTSD and MDD is common among IPV victims. The mechanisms that contribute to comorbid depression, however, are unclear, and prospective studies are necessary to delineate the roles that psychological abuse, PTSD severity and prior trauma experiences may have in the development of depression following IPV.
