title: Evaluation of relationship between CCMQ-J questionnaire items and construction estimated BMI and age model by multivariate analysis

abstract: Japanese version of the Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionarie (CCMQ-J) in Chinese consists of 60 items with 9 sub-scales called Gentleness, Qi-deficiency, Yang-deficiency, Yin-deficiency, Phlegm-wetness, Wet-heat, Blood-stasis, Qi-depression, and Special diathesis. Each question is answered by choosing one form the Likert scale on the grade of 5 scales from 1 to 5 corresponding to Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Often and Always, respectively. In the present study, we overviewed the research field of “Chinese Medicine Questionnaire” by text-mining method and elucidated the position of our thesis. After that we examined the relationship of scores based on 597 respondents to 60 items. We tentatively classified 60 items into 12 groups based on Wards clustering method and discussed similarity of items and 9 sub-scales. Body Mass Index (BMI) and age can be explained by the score of 60 items by partial least square model. Significantly high correlation coefficients between real and estimated values were obtained for BMI (0.81 for male and 0.82 for female) and age (0.82 for male and 0.83 for female). Those results indicate the 60 items contributes aging and BMI properties and CCMQ-J could be used as body-build indicator for evaluating human condition in aging process.
