Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the reproducibility of responses to the QSCCⅡ. Methods : Subjects have been tested by QSCCⅡ for 2 successive years, in Kangnam Korean Hospital Kyunghee Univ. from January 2002 to December 2005. We analysed constitutions of same subjects of every year test. Results : After two years of continuous QSCCⅡ, 333 subjects of total 584 persons, were same constitutions. The reproducibility was 56.88%. After three years of continuous QSCCⅡ, 45 subject of total 81 persons, were same constitutions. The reproducibility was 55.56%. Conclusions : We have found that the reproducibility of QSCCⅡ is about 56%, and there is limitation to diagnose constitution by QSCCⅡ. So, we must analyse constituions by multiple methods objectively.
