The application of the Rasch measurement model in rehabilitation is now well established. Both its dichotomous and polytomous forms provide for transforming ordinal scales into interval-level measures, consistent with the requirements of fundamental measurement. The growth of applying the model in rehabilitation spans 30 years, during which both the protocol has steadily developed and several software packages have emerged that provide for analysis, together with the "R" language that has an increasing set of codes for applying the model. This article reviews that development and highlights current practice requirements, including those for providing the relevant information for the methods, and what is expected of the analysis. In addition, this provides a worked example and looks at the remaining issues and current developments of its application.
Rasch测量模型在康复领域的应用现已得到充分确立。其二分法和多分类法形式都能将顺序量表转换为等距水平的测量，符合基本测量的要求。该模型在康复领域的应用发展历经30年，在此期间，方案不断稳步完善，还出现了几个用于分析的软件包，同时，用于应用该模型的“R”语言代码集也在不断增加。本文回顾了这一发展历程，突出了当前的实践要求，包括为方法提供相关信息的要求以及对分析的期望。此外，本文还提供了一个实例，并探讨了其应用中尚存的问题和当前的发展情况。
