量表在国内针灸研究中的应用现状及展望

Current situation and prospects of scale application in acupuncture research in China

近年来借助规范化、标准化的量表评价方法进行针灸研究方兴未艾,取得了量和质上的双重飞跃。通过分析近5年来量表在针灸研究中的应用现状,提出了目前存在的主要问题,即应用量表的广度不够,量表体现针灸的优势和特色不足以及缺乏严谨的信效度检验,并对今后的研究思路进行了探讨。

In recent years, the standardized scales have been increasingly adopted for acupuncture researches, making leaps in both quality and quantity. By analyzing the current situation of scale application in acupuncture researches in the past five years, the present paper points out the major problems at present, including inadequate use of the scale, insufficiency of the scale in reflecting the advantages and characteristics of acupuncture and moxibustion as well as lack of confirmatory test of reliability and validity of the scales, and probes into the future study thinking.
