Loneliness Scale for the Elderly
时间窗: 12 weeks
The loneliness scale for the elderly was developed to determine the sense of loneliness. The two subscales in the scale are: emotional and social loneliness subscales. There are 11 items in the binary Likert type scale. Minumum and maximum scores are 0 and 22 points, respectively. The total score is obtained by collecting the scores from the subscales. Loneliness can be divided into four levels according to the score. "0-4 scores" do not feel loneliness, "5-14 scores" acceptable loneliness, "15-18 scores" feeling very loneliness and "19-22 scores" feeling very lonely. Levels increase the level of loneliness.
