The Validity of the Dutch Behavior Rating Scale for Psychogeriatric Inpatients GIP was demonstrated in a study comparing it to well-known rating scales such as the BOP and NOSIE-30 (n = 195). The GIP has the additional advantage of specifically describing the emotional and affective characteristics of psychogeriatric patients. Interrater reliability (Cohen's kappa) of all three rating scales was modest, which might be explained by the type of setting: a short stay clinic for the elderly where rapid behavioural changes can occur. Using a regression analysis technique a new compact GIP dependency subscale was constructed showing excellent predictive value in relation to the more elaborate BOP dependency subscale.

Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.

D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.
