BACKGROUND
Research has shown that there is variability in quality of life (QOL) outcomes for people with intellectual disabilities who live in group homes. The aim was to examine dimensions of group home culture as predictors of QOL outcomes.
METHOD
The Group Home Culture Scale (GHCS) was used to measure staff perceptions of culture in 23 group homes. QOL data were available from 98 people with intellectual disabilities. Multilevel modelling was used to examine the associations between the GHCS subscales and four QOL-dependent variables.
RESULTS
Of the GHCS subscales, Effective Team Leadership and Alignment of Staff with Organizational Values significantly predicted residents' engagement in activities. Supporting Well-Being significantly predicted residents' community involvement. None of the GHCS subscales significantly predicted domestic participation and choice making.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings suggest that strategies to improve Effective Team Leadership and Supporting Well-Being dimensions of culture may contribute to enhancing certain QOL outcomes.
背景
研究表明，居住在群体之家的智障人士的生活质量（QOL）结果存在差异。本研究旨在探讨群体之家文化的各个方面作为 QOL 结果的预测因素。
方法
使用群体之家文化量表（GHCS）来衡量 23 个群体之家工作人员对文化的看法。有 98 名智障人士的 QOL 数据可用。使用多层次模型来检验 GHCS 子量表与四个 QOL 相关变量之间的关联。
结果
在 GHCS 子量表中，有效的团队领导力和员工与组织价值观的一致性显著预测了居民参与活动的情况。支持幸福感显著预测了居民的社区参与情况。GHCS 子量表中没有一个显著预测家庭参与和决策制定。
结论
研究结果表明，改善文化的有效团队领导力和支持幸福感维度的策略可能有助于提高某些 QOL 结果。
