Turrina C, Siani R, Regini C, Campana A, Bologna R, Siciliani O. lnter‐observer and test‐retest reliability of the Italian version of the Karolinska Psychodynamic Profile in two groups of psychiatric patients. Scand 1996: 93: 282–287. © Munksgaard 1996. A total of 64 psychiatric patients were tested with the Italian version of the Karolinska Psychodynamic Profile in order to investigate inter‐observer and test‐retest reliability. The mean inter‐observer agreement coefficients (rho) ranged from 0.75 to 0.80 with less experienced psychiatrists, while the mean rho value was higher (0.96) with more experienced raters. Test‐retest values were good, ranging from 0.53 to 0.93. Overall, reliability was comparable with that reported in the original Swedish study.
