…Originally, the UPAPS for weaned pigs contained an item related to feeding (Appetite), however, in the validation of the UPAPS for pre-weaned pigs, an analogous item (Nursing) was considered sub-optimal…
…Short pain scale The AUC of UPAPS (90.58%) was statistically equivalent (p = 0.4940) to its short version (89.62%) (Table 3). Short UPAPS total sum ranged from 0 to 5…
…The AUC from UPAPS original weighting without the Activity item was statistically similar to the full UPAPS, which supports a shorter version of the scale. A shorter version of UPAPS may be…

…Although of great importance, all behavioral scales, including the UPAPS, are sus- ceptible to some subjectivity due to observers’ individual experiences [13]. The UPAPS was initially developed and validated by senior researchers…
