This study examined the reliability of a revised version of the Burn Specific Health Scale (BSHS). Two hundred fifty-four former patients recruited from eight burn centers in the southeastern United States participated in the study. Data were collected via chart review and mailed questionnaire. Factor analyses were used to identify seven subscales containing a total of 31 items. Subsequent analyses provided strong support for the reliability and validity of the revised measure. Each subscale exhibited a high level of reliability (Cronbach's alpha ranged from 0.82 to 0.94). Each subscale also correlated in a predictable manner with measures used for validation. The revised measure should improve the ability of both researchers and clinicians to assess the impact of non-fatal burn injury accurately and comprehensively.
