Many of the questions on the assessment instruments are similar in wording and some nearly identical. Why so much repetition?
It is important to determine the reliability of the patient’s responses. If a patient answers yes to one question and no to another of similar content, this could indicate confusion or carelessness. The more a patient answers similarly to questions that are nearly identical in content, the more confidence the clinician has the patient understood the questions and approached the test taking in a way that allows for accurate interpretation of the test.
