Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS)
|
Not reported
|
Scale had 100% sensitivity (percentage of true cases identified) and 89% specificity (percentage of true non cases identified as such) when tested against the DSMIIIR diagnostic criteria for major depression (for Australian sample of 103 postpartum women) [30].
|
General Sleep Disturbance Scale (GSDS)
|
Internal consistency reliability coefficient of .85[31, 32].
|
Validated with sleep logs (r = .41) and Actigraph results (r = −.42)[31]
|
Assessment of Quality of Life 8D (AQoL8D)
|
Test retest reliability of .91 (baseline and 2 weeks) and .89 (baseline and one month) [33]
|
When compared with 6 other Quality of Life Instruments* the AQoL8D had an average intra class correlation coefficient of .57[34].
|
Actigraph Accelerometer
|
Overall intra- and inter- instrument reliability for activity counts: mean CV intra = 2.9% and mean CV inter = 3.5%[35]
|
Validated with doubly labeled water (r = 0.58, p < 0.001)[36]
