The psychometric performance such as reliability, validity, responsiveness and clinical feasibility in the Asthma-PRO instrument was evaluated. Results The split-half reliabilities of the Asthma-PRO instrument and each dimension were greater than 0.8. In the analysis of internal consistency of each dimension, the cronbach’s alpha coefficient was greater than 0.7. Factor analysis showed that the instrument has good construct validity. The scores of each of the facets and total scores between the asthma patients and the healthy subjects were different.
