The purpose of this study was to test the reliability and validity of the Function-Focused Care Checklist for Caregivers using Rasch analysis.
This was a descriptive study using data from the study "Testing the Dissemination and Implementation of Function-Focused Care for Assisted Living Using the Evidence Integration Triangle." The study was approved by a university institutional review board.
A Rasch analysis was completed, which included 691 staff-resident observations from 85 assisted living facilities.
There was evidence of internal consistency (alpha coefficient of .93), construct validity except for a high OUTFIT statistic for wheelchair mobility, and hypothesis testing based on an increase in performance of function-focused care by caregivers over 12 months.
The findings provided psychometric support for the measure and guidance for revisions.
This measure can be used clinically to teach caregivers to provide function-focused care to residents in assisted living.
本研究旨在使用 Rasch 分析检验 caregiver功能焦点护理检查表的信度和效度。
这是一项描述性研究,使用了“使用证据整合三角测试辅助生活中功能焦点护理的传播和实施”研究的数据。该研究得到了一所大学机构审查委员会的批准。
完成了 Rasch 分析,其中包括来自 85 个辅助生活设施的 691 名员工-居民观察。
有内部一致性的证据(α系数为.93),除了轮椅移动的 OUTFI 统计数据较高外,还具有结构有效性,并且基于护理人员在 12 个月内提高功能焦点护理的表现进行了假设检验。
研究结果为该测量提供了心理计量学支持,并为修订提供了指导。
该测量可在临床上用于教导护理人员为辅助生活中的居民提供功能焦点护理。
