A scale for measuring activities of daily living (ADL) functioning is described and reviewed. Teh Klein-Bell ADL Scale has been empirically constructed to yield a score of independent functioning for research and clinical purposes. Interrater reliability is 92%, even without extensive training in the use of the scale. Validity was measured by correlating ADL scores at discharge with hours/weeks of assistance (physical, verbal cueing, and type) received 5 to 10 months postdischarge; correlation was -0.86 (p less than 0.01), indicating that persons with low ADL scores receive much assistance, and that the amount of assistance received decreases steadily as the ADL score increases. Further research applications are suggested.
本文描述并回顾了一种用于测量日常生活活动（ADL）功能的量表。克莱因 - 贝尔ADL量表是通过实证构建的，旨在得出一个用于研究和临床目的的独立功能得分。即使在没有对量表使用进行广泛培训的情况下，评分者间信度也达到了92%。效度通过将出院时的ADL得分与出院后5至10个月所接受的协助时间/周数（身体协助、言语提示及类型）进行相关性测量；相关性为 -0.86（p小于0.01），这表明ADL得分低的人接受大量协助，并且随着ADL得分的增加，所接受的协助量稳步减少。文中还提出了进一步的研究应用建议。
