Résumé : | Importance: The inability to participate in meaningful activities is one of stroke survivors' main difficulties and has a negative effect on their satisfaction and quality of life. Objective: To assess the reliability and validity of the Persian version of the Engagement in Meaningful Activities Survey (EMASP) and predictors of participation in meaningful activity among chronic stroke survivors. Design: Cross-sectional. Setting: Medical and rehabilitation centers. Participants: One hundred twenty-three people (75 men, 48 women) with chronic stroke. Outcomes and Measures: Participants were evaluated with the EMASP, Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, Purpose in Life TestShort Form (PILSF), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF36), and Life Satisfaction IndexZ (LSIZ). Results: The EMASP showed good internal consistency (Cronbach's α =.95) and testretest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient =.87 for EMASP total score). Testretest reliability for each EMASP item was moderate (κ =.40.65). A significant correlation between the EMASP and PILSF (r =.86), SWLS (r =.83), LSIZ (r =.75), and SF36 subscales (rs =.52.83) indicated the appropriate convergent validity. The EMASP's discriminative validity was also confirmed for age, depression level, and disability level among people with chronic stroke. Depression, disability level, gender, and fatigue were significant predictors of EMASP score. Conclusions and Relevance: The results indicate that the EMASP has acceptable reliability and validity among Iranian people with chronic stroke. Moreover, the EMASP showed good discriminant validity for age, depression, and disability level among them. What This Article Adds: The EMASP is a reliable and valid scale for assessing the engagement of Iranian chronic stroke survivors in meaningful activities and thus should be helpful in both clinical research and practice. The results of this study show that the Engagement in Meaningful Activities Survey (EMAS) is a reliable and valid scale for assessing the engagement of chronic stroke survivors in meaningful activities, supporting its use in clinical research and practice. |
