This article describes the development and use of the Formulation Understanding Measure to evaluate team formulation with staff supporting people with intellectual disabilities.
A quantitative design with an opportunistic sample was used to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Formulation Understanding Measure (FUM) including pre- and post-administration at case formulation workshops. The measure was developed based upon experience of delivering case formulation workshops and was administered alongside case formulation workshops with 347 staff team members.
The measure was found to have acceptable psychometric properties with good internal reliability, a single principal component, and associations with training and demographic factors. It was also sensitive to changes resulting from case formulation workshops with the measure showing that staff increased in their understanding of the person with intellectual disability following a formulation workshop.
The FUM will enable routine evaluation of team formulations and further studies in the area.
本文描述了“配方理解度量”的开发和使用，该度量旨在评估支持智障人士的工作人员团队的配方。
采用定量设计和机会样本，评估配方理解度量（FUM）的心理测量特性，包括在案例配方工作坊之前和之后进行的测试。该度量是根据提供案例配方工作坊的经验开发的，并在与 347 名员工团队成员一起举办的案例配方工作坊中进行管理。
该度量被发现具有可接受的心理测量特性，具有良好的内部可靠性、单一的主要成分以及与培训和人口统计学因素的关联。它还对案例配方工作坊的结果变化具有敏感性，该度量表明，在完成配方工作坊后，工作人员对智障人士的理解有所增加。
FUM 将能够对团队配方进行常规评估，并进一步在该领域开展研究。
