Goal attainment scaling (GAS) is a methodology that shows promise for application to intervention effectiveness research and program evaluation in occupational therapy (Dreiling & Bundy, 2003; King et al., 1999; Lannin, 2003; Mitchell & Cusick, 1998). This article identifies the recent and current applications of GAS to occupational therapy for children with sensory integration dysfunction, as well as the process, usefulness, and problems of application of the GAS methodology to this population. The advantages and disadvantages of using GAS in single-site and multisite research with this population is explored, as well as the potential solutions and future programs that will strengthen the use of GAS as a measure of treatment effectiveness, both in current clinical practice and in much-needed larger, multisite research studies.
目标达成量表(GAS)是一种有望应用于职业治疗中干预效果研究和项目评估的方法(德赖林和邦迪,2003年;金等人,1999年;兰宁,2003年;米切尔和库西克,1998年)。本文确定了GAS在针对感觉统合功能障碍儿童的职业治疗中的近期和当前应用,以及GAS方法应用于该人群的过程、实用性和问题。探讨了在针对该人群的单中心和多中心研究中使用GAS的优缺点,以及在当前临床实践和急需的更大规模多中心研究中加强使用GAS作为治疗效果衡量指标的潜在解决方案和未来计划。
