TLDR The revised Chinese Symptom Checklist-90 is more reliable and valid for psychological assessments.

The research study titled "Study of item text in the Chinese Symptom Checklist-90" aimed to improve the reliability and validity of the Chinese Symptom Checklist-90, a tool used in psychological assessments. The study involved 1,200 participants and identified 18 items out of 90 that needed revision for better clarity, accuracy, and cultural relevance. The revised version of the checklist showed improved psychometric properties, making it a more reliable and valid tool for psychological assessments. The study also mentioned its use in a population of 355 Chinese college students with androgenetic alopecia, who showed higher levels of various psychological symptoms compared to a control group. The researchers concluded that the revised checklist can be effectively used in clinical and research settings, but the effectiveness of the revisions needs to be evaluated by future empirical research.
