The purpose of this descriptive, correlational study was to explore the relationship between constructional abilities and meal preparation skills--a previously unstudied relationship. Fifty-four men with head injury, aged 18 to 52, in long-term rehabilitation programs, were given a battery of constructional, functional, and coordination tests: (1) the WAIS-R Block Design test; (2) a Parquetry Block test; (3) the Rabideau Kitchen Evaluation-Revised (RKE-R); and (4) two subtests of the Jebsen Hand Function Test. Results showed significant associations between constructional abilities and meal preparation skill. Pearson correlations were -0.51 (p = 0.0001) between WAIS-R Block Design test and RKE-R scores, and 0.50 (p = 0.0001) between Parquetry Block test and RKE-R scores. Partial correlations controlling for the effects of coordination also yielded significant correlations between WAIS-R Block Design test and RKE-R scores (r = -0.36, p = 0.05) and between Parquetry Block test and RKE-R scores (r = 0.39, p = 0.03). Constructional abilities, then, may contribute to meal preparation performance.
这项描述性、相关性研究的目的是探究建构能力与膳食准备技能之间的关系——这是一种此前未被研究过的关系。54名年龄在18至52岁之间、参加长期康复项目的头部受伤男性接受了一系列建构、功能和协调测试:(1)韦氏成人智力量表修订版(WAIS-R)积木图案测试;(2)镶嵌积木测试;(3)拉比多厨房评估修订版(RKE-R);以及(4)杰布森手功能测试的两个子测试。结果显示建构能力与膳食准备技能之间存在显著关联。WAIS-R积木图案测试与RKE-R分数之间的皮尔逊相关系数为-0.51(p = 0.0001),镶嵌积木测试与RKE-R分数之间的皮尔逊相关系数为0.50(p = 0.0001)。控制协调效应后的偏相关分析也显示WAIS-R积木图案测试与RKE-R分数之间存在显著相关性(r = -0.36,p = 0.05),镶嵌积木测试与RKE-R分数之间也存在显著相关性(r = 0.39,p = 0.03)。因此,建构能力可能有助于膳食准备表现。
