“…The version of the questionnaire was also revealed as a moderator in GHP, P, PF, EF, and CF. As in several previous RG meta‐analyses, the original versions in English of the questionnaires exhibited higher reliability coefficients in comparison to the adaptations (Rubio‐Aparicio et al, 2020; Sánchez‐Meca et al, 2017; Vicent, Rubio‐Aparicio, Sánchez‐Meca, & Gonzálvez, 2019). In addition, in two of the subscales, PF and CF, the use of the questionnaire in North America exhibited higher reliability.…”

The Medical Outcome Study-HIV Health Survey (MOS-HIV) is one of the most used questionnaires for the evaluation of the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in people living with HIV (PLWHIV) in both medical settings and research studies. This study aimed to estimate the average reliability of the MOS-HIV scores and to evaluate the characteristics of the studies that could explain the variability between reliability estimates. Furthermore, the study aimed to estimate the induction rate of the reliability of the MOS-HIV. A systematic review of the previous literature, including studies that reported α and/or test-retest coefficients with the data at hand for the total score of the MOS-HIV and the subscales, was conducted. Fifty studies (52 samples; N = 14,132) were included in the reliability generalization meta-analysis. The average α coefficient for the total score of MOS-HIV was .91 and above .80 for all of the subscales, except for role functioning, which had an average coefficient of .76. Different study dimensions were related to the heterogeneity of reliability between studies. Reliability induction was found to be 76.1%. The results obtained in the present study indicate that the MOS-HIV is a reliable instrument for HRQoL evaluation in PLWHIV, for clinical and research purposes. In the clinical practice of health services, nurses could employ this gold standard for reliable evaluations of HRQoL in PLWHIV.

“…We assessed OC symptoms using the Padua Inventory-Washington State University Revision (PI-WSUR) (25). We chose the PI-WSUR because of its good test-retest reliability (29) and detailed sub-scales. These subscales enabled us to look at changes in scores over repeated testing and assess sub-scores of interest, such as the contamination obsessions and washing compulsions sub-scores (COWC).…”

A Selective Increase in OC Symptoms is Driving Information Seeking and Guideline Adherence During the Covid-19 Pandemic

BackgroundIncreased mental health problems as a reaction to stressful life events, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, are common. Critically, successful adaptation helps reduce such symptoms to baseline, preventing long-term psychiatric disorders. It is thus important to understand whether and which psychiatric symptoms only show transient elevations, and which persist long-term and become chronically heightened. At particular risk for the latter trajectory are disorders with symptoms directly affected by the pandemic, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder.MethodsIn this longitudinal large-scale study (N=416), we assessed how obsessive-compulsive (OC), anxiety, and depression symptoms changed throughout the course of the first pandemic wave in a sample of the general UK public. We further examined how these symptoms affected pandemic-related information seeking and adherence to governmental guidelines.FindingsAll psychiatric domains were initially elevated, but showed distinct adaptation patterns. Depression scores decreased during the first pandemic wave, however, OC symptoms further increased, even after the end of lockdown. These OC symptoms were directly linked to Covid-related information seeking which gave rise to higher adherence to government guidelines.InterpretationThe rise and persistence of OC symptoms, despite the ease of Covid-19 restrictions, shows that OCD is disproportionally and chronically affected by the pandemic. This is particularly worrying with regards to the long-term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on public mental health and indicates that patients with OCD may require particular treatment efforts.

“…Nonetheless, such additional effort will allow comparisons of sample composition and variability of the studies that reported and induced reliability, in order to determine whether or not the reporting bias scenario is plausible. For instance, Rubio‐Aparicio et al's 72 RG meta‐analysis on the Padua Inventory‐Washington State University Revision of Obsessions and Compulsions (PI‐WSUR) stated in the Methods section: “All study characteristics were not only extracted from studies reporting reliability, but also from those that induced it, with the aim of comparing the characteristics of the studies that both reported and induced reliability” (p. 115). It is important to note that studies that induced reliability are not used in the meta‐analytic integration of the reliability coefficients.…”

Reliability generalization (RG) is a meta‐analytic approach that aims to characterize how reliability estimates from the same test vary across different applications of the instrument. With this purpose RG meta‐analyses typically focus on a particular test and intend to obtain an overall reliability of test scores and to investigate how the composition and variability of the samples affect reliability. Although several guidelines have been proposed in the meta‐analytic literature to help authors improve the reporting quality of meta‐analyses, none of them were devised for RG meta‐analyses. The purpose of this investigation was to develop REGEMA (REliability GEneralization Meta‐Analysis), a 30‐item checklist (plus a flow chart) adapted to the specific issues that the reporting of an RG meta‐analysis must take into account. Based on previous checklists and guidelines proposed in the meta‐analytic arena, a first version was elaborated by applying the nominal group methodology. The resulting instrument was submitted to a list of independent meta‐analysis experts and, after discussion, the final version of the REGEMA checklist was reached. In a pilot study, four pairs of coders applied REGEMA to a random sample of 40 RG meta‐analyses in Psychology, and results showed satisfactory inter‐coder reliability. REGEMA can be used by: (a) meta‐analysts conducting or reporting an RG meta‐analysis and aiming to improve its reporting quality; (b) consumers of RG meta‐analyses who want to make informed critical appraisals of their reporting quality, and (c) reviewers and editors of journals who are considering submissions where an RG meta‐analysis was reported for potential publication.
