[Interrater reliability of the German version of the Comprehensive Psychopathological Rating Scale (CPRS)].
The interrater reliability of the German version of the CPRS was examined in 30 patients (18 schizophrenic, 11 depressive and 1 manic). All patients were examined by the same two raters. The agreement of 55 out of 65 items was determined using the kappa coefficient. Kappa was calculated concerning symptom present/not present and differences less than or equal to 2/difference greater than 2.49 or 54 items show a moderate to excellent agreement. Items based on self-rating have a better interrater reliability than items based on the rating of the psychiatrists. The interrater reliability of the syndromes was calculated, using the rank correlation coefficient. The agreement concerning the 4 primary and the 2 second-order factors is high or excellent. The good results show the usefulness of the CPRS for the assessment of psychopathological findings.
