Objectives：This study was performed to test the reliability and validity of the revised Insight Scale for Psychosis as an assessment tool in a Korean-language version (KISP).
Methods：The subjects for the present study were 81 patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia as defined by DSM-IV-TR. The KISP was administered together with two other clinician rating measures, the Present State Examination (PSE) insight item and the six levels of insight, to assess validity.
Results：All the scale showed good internal consistency reliability (Cronbach’s alpha=0.84). The correlations of items with their scale total revealed that almost all items were significantly correlated with their own scale score. There were association with relevant the PSE score (p<0.01) and the six levels of insight score (p<0.01). In preliminary study, there were some other association between the KISP score and other clinical variables.
Conclusion：Our results give support to the reliability and validity of the KISP.
