Reliability and validity of the Patient Experiences Questionnaire for Interdisciplinary Treatment for Substance Dependence - Continuous Electronic Measurement (PEQ-ITSD - CEM).
Article in BMC health services research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundInpatient experiences with interdisciplinary treatment for substance dependence and mental health care are measured using continuous electronic measurements in Norway. Major changes in data collection from cross-sectional surveys to continuous measurements necessitated the revalidation of the instrument. The main purpose of the present study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Patient Experiences Questionnaire for Interdisciplinary Treatment for Substance Dependence - Continuous Electronic Measurement (PEQ-ITSD - CEM). We also aimed to develop a short version of this tool, since completing the original version can be burdensome for some patients.
methodsThe study included adult inpatients (aged ≥ 16 years) who received substance-dependence treatment at 102 different sections in Norway during 2020-2022 (n = 2,850). Factor structure and item performance were assessed. A short version was developed based on the psychometric testing results that included item response theory analysis.
resultsThe PEQ-ITSD - CEM comprised three empirically based scales with good internal consistency, reliability and validity, which covers treatment and personnel (14 items), milieu (6 items) and outcome (5 items). The results supported a seven-item short version, with three items selected for the treatment and personnel scale, two items for the milieu scale and two items for the outcome scale.
conclusionsThe PEQ-ITSD - CEM can be recommended for future assessments of patient experiences with interdisciplinary treatment for substance dependence in Norway and in other countries with similar healthcare systems. This short-form version can be applied when respondent burden is a crucial issue.
