摘要
The Social Health Battery, a measure of social support developed by Donald and Ware, has only been tested in a population of individuals aged 14 to 61 years. As part of a larger study, the battery was administered to adults aged 61 to 93 years. Internal consistencies, Cronbach coefficient alpha, indicated that the scale and its subscales, Social Contacts and Group Participation, appear to be a reliable measure of social support for a geriatric population.
