[Validity and quality criteria of the efficiency parameter "quantity of dental services"].

The validity of the efficiency parameter "quantity of dental services" (as developed by Diettrich and Uhlig) was examined by means of discriminating work analyses in dentist-nurse collectives and by comparison of the values of this parameter in the course of several 6-month periods. The statistical evaluation (significance tests, correlation analysis) of the quality criteria (objectivity, reliability, validity) as precision conditions of any specific measuring method showed that the present efficiency parameter complies with the above-mentioned criteria and that it may be used, with due regard to its limitations, as a reliable tool for accounting and managing in stomatology.

[Requirements and time factors in dental activities].

The exact determination of the demands on, and the allowed times for, the stomatological activity is an essential prerequisite of fixing measures for the increase in quality and efficiency of the stomatological care and for the control of their success. The results of a discriminating work analysis on the basis of an independent study on a representative sample of dentist-nurse collectives are compared with the findings of other authors. After resolution of the stomatological basic activities into partial activities and after calculations of the arithmetic means of the respective allowed times, the authors establish synthetic allowed times for the basic activities by summing up the adjustable, necessary and defined partial activities.
