Abstract

25 in-patients, 17 males and 8 females, were administered Barnes' Scale for drug-induced Akathisia. Akathisia was found in 7 of them, 5 males and 2 females. One had pseudoakathisia and in the other, akathisia was questionable. The inter-rater reliability, assessed by weighted Cohen's kappa, was found to be high.
