The Self Care Assessment Schedule (SCAS)--II. Reliability and validity

S Benjamin et al. J Psychosom Res. 1987.

Abstract

Evaluation of the SCAS in three groups of patients demonstrates high levels of test-retest reliability and satisfactory internal consistency. Multiple investigations of validity support the use of the SCAS as a measure of self care deficit which is related to social disability. The potential uses of the SCAS in clinical work and research are discussed.
