摘要
Little data exist on elder abuse (EA) among the very old (>80 years), and instruments have not been developed to identify EA within this group. This study presents a survey instrument: the Elder Abuse and Emotional Consequences Scale (EACS). We conducted interviews in a representative sample of the oldest old and did confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) based on n = 988 persons to confirm the assumed factor structure of the EACS. The results confirm a six-dimensional structure and good model fit of the questionnaire. A preliminary examination confirms the reliability and validity of the dimensions. The EACS is thus a multidimensional assessment of EA that can be used in interviews with the very old.
