To examine the responsiveness of the Work Role Functioning Questionnaire (Spanish version) (WRFQ-SpV) so that it could be used in evaluative studies.
A longitudinal survey was performed. Combinations of distribution- and anchor-based approaches were used. Five hypotheses were tested, examining validity of change scores. The consensus-based standards for the selection of health status measurement instruments (COSMIN) guided the study design.
One hundred two participants (mean age, 47.3 years; SD = 10.3 years) completed the WRFQ-SpV twice, within a mean interval of 3.7 (SD = 1.8) months. Four hypotheses were confirmed and one was rejected. It was verified that the WRFQ-SpV was able to detect (true) changes over time.
Suggestive evidence about the possible use of the WRFQ-SpV with evaluative purposes was provided. More research is needed to examine the instrument responsiveness for groups whose health is stable or deteriorates.
检验工作角色功能问卷(西班牙语版)(WRFQ-SpV)的反应度,以便在评价性研究中使用。
进行了一项纵向调查。使用分布和锚定基础方法的组合。检验了 5 个关于变化分数有效性的假设。选择健康状况测量工具的共识标准(COSMIN)指导了研究设计。
102 名参与者(平均年龄 47.3 岁,标准差=10.3 岁)在平均 3.7(标准差=1.8)个月的时间内两次完成了 WRFQ-SpV。四个假设得到了证实,一个假设被拒绝。验证了 WRFQ-SpV 能够随时间检测到(真实)变化。
提供了关于可能将 WRFQ-SpV 用于评价目的的使用的提示性证据。需要进一步研究以检验该工具对健康稳定或恶化的人群的反应度。
