[Guttman scales for the comprehension of vigor and sociability in the elderly: comparative validation between self assessment and expert estimates of actual life accomplishments of inhabitants of old-age homes].

In a previous article we described the development of two Guttman-scales for the self-assessment of functional health and sociability of old people. In this publication different aspects of scale-validity are examined. Together with corresponding expert-ratings and a measure of subjective health the two self-ratings are evaluated with regard to their relations to behavioral data. While the functional health scale reaches high coefficients of scalability and good validity, the sociability-scale still is in need of further improvement.
