Abstract
Objectives:This study was conducted to verify the reliability and validity of the Mental Health Recovery Measure (MHRM), which was designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of the recovery process.

Methods: A sample of 253 psychiatric patients were assessed using a package of measures, which comprised the MHRM, the Quality of Life Scale, the Empowerment Scale, the Ego-Resilience Scale, the Clinical Global Impression Scale and the General Assessment of Functioning. The reliability of the MHRM was evaluated in terms of its internal consistency and item-total correlations, and its validity was explored by factor analysis. A multiple regression analysis was conducted to examine the discriminant validity of the recovery factors.

Results: The MHRM was found to be highly reliable in terms of internal consistency, and corrected item-total correlations r ranged from 0.49 to 0.75. The exploratory factor analysis revealed six factors, and the regression analysis indicated that the factors are measuring distinct features. In addition, various estimates of validity of MHRM were established with the criterion measures in conceptually expected ways.

Conclusion: These results offer the reliability and validity of the MHRM. The implications and limitations of this study were discussed, and future directions of study were suggested.
