Abstract
The results of assessing the psychometric properties of the modified Neurotic Disorders Questionnaire — symptomatic based on the Rasch metric system are described. The modified questionnaire contains 13 scales. Quality indices of 135 points are in the range of 0,6—1,4. The UMS and WMS quality indices of item No. 42 of the Depression Scale are 0,54 and 0,58, the UMS and WMS quality indices of item No. 7 of the Sexual Impairment Scale are 1,41 and 1,47. Reliability indices within the range of 0,70—0,92, separation indices from 1,40 to 3,47, indices of the number of layers from 3 to 5. Established statistical levels of severity of neurotic symptoms of a modified questionnaire and clinical degrees of severity according to statistical levels of severity of neurotic symptoms are proposed symptoms.
