Abstract
<p>Objectives : To develop an 8-item premenstrual syndrome (PMS-8) scale to measure the severity of PMS as perceived by the patient, and to test its reliability and validity.</p><p>Methods : First, we developed the PMS-8 based on 8 items from the Short version of DRSP, which examines the perceived severity of premenstrual symptoms in general. Cronbach’s alpha was calculated and RMSEA and CFI were calculated by confirmatory factor analysis for PMS-8. Spearman’s correlation coefficient with the PMS-Impact scale was calculated for concurrent validity.</p><p>Results : Cronbach’s alpha for PMS-8 was 0.75, with a two-factor structure of psychological and physical factors; RMSEA was 0.08 and CFI was 0.94. Spearman’s correlation coefficient with PMS-Impact was 0.72 (p<0.01).</p><p>Conclusion : Overall, PMS-8 demonstrated acceptable reliability and validity.</p>
