Résumé : |
Objective To assess the feasibility and psychometric properties of 8 scales covering 2 domains of the newly developed Work Disability Functional Assessment Battery (WD-FAB): physical function (PF) and behavioral health (BH) function. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Community. Participants Adults (N=973) unable to work because of a physical (n=497) or a mental (n=476) disability. Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Each disability group responded to a survey consisting of the relevant WD-FAB scales and existing measures of established validity. The WD-FAB scales were evaluated with regard to data quality (score distribution, percentage of I don't know responses), efficiency of administration (number of items required to achieve reliability criterion, time required to complete the scale) by computerized adaptive testing (CAT), and measurement accuracy as tested by person fit. Construct validity was assessed by examining both convergent and discriminant correlations between the WD-FAB scales and scores on same-domain and cross-domain established measures. Results Data quality was good, and CAT efficiency was high across both WD-FAB domains. Measurement accuracy was very good for PF scales; BH scales demonstrated more variability. Construct validity correlations, both convergent and divergent, between all WD-FAB scales and established measures were in the expected direction and range of magnitude. Conclusions The data quality, CAT efficiency, person fit, and construct validity of the WD-FAB scales were well supported and suggest that the WD-FAB could be used to assess PF and BH function related to work disability. Variation in scale performance suggests the need for future work on item replenishment and refinement, particularly with regard to the Self-Efficacy scale. |
