2. Assessing Interrater Reliability of GARF Ratings of Couples' Functioning.

Author

Corcoran, Kevin J., White, Lyle J., Michels, Jennifer L., and Gilbert, David G.

Abstract

Recently, a great deal of attention has been focused on the development of a system of relational diagnosis to be incorporated into the American Psychiatric Association's diagnostic system, that of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). One of the more intriguing components of this effort is the Global Assessment of Relational Functioning (GARF), which purports to assess the functioning of relational units along dimensions of problem solving, emotional support, and organization. Unfortunately, to date little meaningful reliability data exist concerning this scale. In this study, 64 couples were videotaped while they attempted to resolve their most serious relational problem. Twelve advanced graduate students in training rated the interactions, using the GARF scaling presented in DSM-IV. Results revealed statistically significant, although clinically unsatisfactory, interrater reliability (r=0.43). Results are discussed in terms of the work remaining on the development of the GARF before it is ready for inclusion in a future DSM, and the importance of psychometric properties such as reliability in the development of the GARF and their tests of relational functioning.

Abstract

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with various non-motor symptoms, including cognitive deterioration. Objective: Here, we used data from the DEMPARK/LANDSCAPE cohort to describe the association between progression of cognitive profiles and the PD motor phenotypes: postural instability and gait disorder (PIGD), tremor-dominant (TR-D), and not-determined (ND). Methods: Demographic, clinical, and neuropsychological six-year longitudinal data of 711 PD-patients were included (age: M= 67.57; 67.4% males). We computed z-transformed composite scores for a priori defined cognitive domains. Analyses were controlled for age, gender, education, and disease duration. To minimize missing data and drop-outs, three-year followup data of 442 PD-patients was assessed with regard to the specific role of motor phenotype on cognitive decline using linear mixed modelling (age: M= 66.10; 68.6% males). Results: Our study showed that in the course of the disease motor symptoms increased while MMSE and PANDA remained stable in all subgroups. After three-year follow-up, significant decline of overall cognitive performance for PIGD-patients was present and we found differences for motor phenotypes in attention (beta = -0.08, SE = 0.003, p < 0.006) and memory functions showing that PIGD-patients deteriorate per months by -0.006 compared to the ND-group (SE = 0.003, p = 0.046). Furthermore, PIGD-patients experienced more often difficulties in daily living. Conclusion: Over a period of three years, we identified distinct neuropsychological progression patterns with respect to different PD motor phenotypes, with early executive deficits yielding to a more amnestic profile in the later course. Here, in particular PIGD-patients worsened over time compared to TR-D and ND-patients, highlighting the greater risk of dementia for this motor phenotype.
