The present study was conducted to develop a structured interview to evaluate the interpersonal schema based on Self-Defining Memory of older adults. First, the word cues that the older adults often report on interpersonal events were confirmed. Next, the indices and scoring rules were prepared, including Relationship frequency (RF), Conflict frequency (CF), Dominance mean (Dm), and Warmth mean (Wm). Healthy older adults living alone (mean age = 71.81, SD = 3.95) were interviewed. Finally, the correlation between each index and Short form of Korean Inventory of Interpersonal Problems Circumplex Scales (KIIP-SC) was analyzed for criterion validity. The inter-rater reliability was substantial (Kappa = 0.61~0.66). Based on the analysis of criterion validity, the indices of CF, Dm, and Wm indices showed an appropriate level of criterion validity. This study developed a structural interview based on a novel system of reporting autobiographical memory and established indices with appropriate validity to evaluate interpersonal relationships. The interview is expected to identify the characteristics of interpersonal relationships of the older adults and contribute to the establishment of the older adults\u2019 community accordingly.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph18052316","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,26]],"date-time":"2021-02-26T09:47:20Z","timestamp":1614332840000},"page":"2316","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Development of a Structured Interview to Explore Interpersonal Schema of Older Adults Living Alone Based on Autobiographical Memory"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Yunna","family":"Kwan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry, Wonju Severance Christian Hospital, Wonju 26426, Korea"},{"name":"Department of Psychology, Duksung Women\u2019s University, Seoul 01369, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sungwon","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, Duksung Women\u2019s University, Seoul 01369, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tae Rim","family":"Eom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Insurance Research Institute, National Health Insurance Service, Wonju 26464, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tae Hui","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry, Wonju Severance Christian Hospital, Wonju 26426, Korea"},{"name":"Department of Psychiatry, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Wonju 26426, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Mental Health Care with Family Physicians","volume":"3","author":"Kim","year":"2013","journal-title":"Korean J.
