The Beach Center Family Quality of Life Scale is an internationally validated instrument for measuring family outcomes. To revise the scale for better alignment with the Family Quality of Life theory, the authors excluded non-outcome items in this revision. In this study, we examined reliability and validity of the revised scale (i.e., the FQoL Scale-21) and its scores for Taiwanese families of children and youth with intellectual disability and developmental delay (age 0-18). Results from 400 Taiwanese respondents suggested that the FQoL Scale-21 has the potential to be used as an indicator of positive outcomes in intervention evaluation, policy making, and service delivery.
海滩中心家庭生活质量量表是一种国际上经过验证的用于衡量家庭结果的工具。为了使该量表更好地与家庭生活质量理论保持一致，作者在本次修订中删除了非结果项目。在这项研究中，我们检验了修订后的量表（即 FQoL 量表-21）及其在台湾地区儿童和青少年智障和发育迟缓（0-18 岁）家庭中的信度和效度。来自 400 名台湾受访者的结果表明，FQoL 量表-21 有可能成为干预评估、政策制定和服务提供中积极结果的指标。
