Computer-assisted versus paper-and-pencil assessment of personal problems in a clinical population

摘要

A limited sample of mental health center clients' responses to the paper-and-pencil and computer-assisted versions of the Personal Problem Checklist (PPC) revealed no significant differences in symptomatology scores, but has indicated differences in the number of problems reported. A validity study regarding the PPC indicated that the checklist did indeed measure personal problems in a consistent manner.
