摘要：

A new instrument for the measurement of life-style activities of the elderly is described. The Adelaide Activities Profile (AAP) was developed in response to the shortcomings of the Frenchay Activities Index. The AAP was validated on a random sample of 1799 people aged 70 years and over, living outside of institutional care. Principal components factor analysis revealed four consistent factors from which four scales were derived; these scales were named domestic chores, household maintenance, service to others, and social activities. Analyses demonstrated the construct validity of the four life-style scales by showing them to be differentially sensitive to a range of domestic, health and social circumstances. It was concluded that the distinct and meaningful clusters of activities represented by the AAP scales should have broad application as health and social indicators.
