Abstract
The inter-rater reliability of the Italian version of the Scale for evaluating stressful life events, developed by Paykel, was studied in 15 psychiatric patients and in 15 normal subjects. Agreement between the two raters was satisfactory for total number of events, impact and independence of event areas and categories. These preliminary findings suggest that the Scale is a reliable instrument for the assessment of life events in Italian samples.Entities:
