The purpose of this study was to identify assessments used to evaluate the homes of people with disabilities in terms of accessibility, usability, activities, comfort/satisfaction, and aesthetics.
The home is increasingly becoming an environment for healthcare as more people desire to age in place. Research indicates home environmental modifications to be beneficial to promote a better person-environment fit, especially when using a standardized assessment approach. There is not a comprehensive list of assessments that address home modifications, adaptations, or interior designs for people with disabilities.
Researchers conducted a rapid review of articles, with data collection scales, instruments, and procedures for home modifications published between 2000 and 2017.
A total of 26 articles met the inclusion criteria, resulting in the identification of 33 distinct assessments, including 18 assessments evaluating the accessibility of home modifications, 3 assessments examining usability, 15 assessments addressing activities of daily living or functional activities, and 5 assessments addressing comfort and/or satisfaction. No assessments for aesthetics were located.
Researchers developed a list of assessments that could be used for research or practice. Further research is needed to address the lack of assessments focusing on the aesthetics or attractiveness of home modifications, as well as more assessments tailored to specific diagnoses and population groups.
本研究旨在确定用于评估残疾人士住所的可达性、可用性、活动、舒适度/满意度和美观度的评估方法。
随着越来越多的人希望在自己家中安度晚年，家庭环境日益成为医疗保健的场所。研究表明，进行家居环境改造对促进更好的人与环境适配有益，特别是当采用标准化评估方法时。目前没有一个全面的评估清单可以涵盖残疾人士的家居改造、适应和内部设计。
研究人员对 2000 年至 2017 年期间发表的有关家居改造、适应和室内设计的文章进行了快速审查，收集了有关数据收集量表、工具和程序。
共有 26 篇文章符合纳入标准，确定了 33 种不同的评估方法，其中 18 种评估方法评估了家居改造的可达性，3 种评估方法检查了可用性，15 种评估方法针对日常生活活动或功能性活动，5 种评估方法评估了舒适度和/或满意度。没有找到评估美观度的评估方法。
研究人员制定了一份可用于研究或实践的评估清单。需要进一步研究以解决缺乏专门针对家居改造美观度或吸引力的评估方法的问题，以及更多针对特定诊断和人群群体的评估方法。
