Download or read book Validity and Validation in Social Behavioral and Health Sciences written by Bruno D. Zumbo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-26 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book combines an overview of validity theory, trends in validation practices and a review of standards and guidelines in several international jurisdictions with research synthesis of the validity evidence in different research areas. An overview of theory is both useful and timely, in view of the increased use of tests and measures for decision-making, ranking and policy purposes in large-scale testing, assessment and social indicators and quality of life research. Research synthesis is needed to help us assemble, critically appraise and integrate the overwhelming volume of research on validity in different contexts. Rather than examining whether any given measure is “valid”, the focus is on a critical appraisal of the kinds of validity evidence reported in the published research literature. The five sources of validity evidence discussed are: content-related, response processes, internal structure, associations with other variables and consequences. The 15 syntheses included here, represent a broad sampling of psychosocial, health, medical and educational research settings, giving us an extensive evidential basis to build upon earlier studies. The book concludes with a meta-synthesis of the 15 syntheses and a discussion of the current thinking of validation practices by leading experts in the field.
Download or read book Functioning of the Core Sets of the International Classification of Functioning Disability and Health ICF written by Juana Gu00f3mez-Benito and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: World Health Organization established the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) (WHO, 2001) to determine the functioning and disability of patients in different health conditions in a comprehensive way. The ICF has more than 1400 categories, but in each health condition only categories that better describe the patient's functioning in that health condition are used. This is called the ICF Core-Sets (ICF-CS).Objective: Shows the main characteristics of the studies that try to analyze if the categories of the different ICF Core-Sets are adequate and enough to evaluate the functionality and disability of patients.Method: We did an analysis of articles that investigate the issue of the proper functioning - validation (adequacy and sufficiency) of ICF Core-Sets in practice to assess the disability and functioning of the patients. The review was conducted on WoS and Scopus databases and spanned from the years of 2007 to september 2018.Results: 19 articles were selected that met the established criteria. Some of the results that were found were that 84.21% of the studies investigated the functioning of the Core-Sets using a single country, that most of the studies focus on two health conditions: Osteoarthritis (21.05% of studies) and Low Back Pain (15.79%). Other result we found that not all the studies reported the number of centers, clinics or hospitals where they evaluated the functioning of the ICF-CS, only 15 studies reported about this. One of these studies did it in 34 centers, other in 14 hospitals and another in 5 sites. The rest (13 studies) did it in 4 centers or less. Discussion: We conclude that the studies of the functioning (adequacy and sufficiency) of the ICF-Core-Sets should include different countries to analyze the validity at a cross-cultural level since it was found that most of them were carried out considering only one country, for example, consider at least one country from each of the six WHO regions. Another conclusion was that it is necessary more hospitals to have a greater diversity in the sample by study, because generally 4 centers or less were used. Finally, in the future, more studies should be conducted to evaluate the ICF-CS of more health conditions, especially mental health conditions, because in this research we did not find many.

Book excerpt: From time to time in the field of healthcare, an exciting new development emerges to challenge and potentially transform thinking and behaviour. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and its framework is undoubtedly one of these transformative resources and is increasingly widely used in the field of childhood disability. This accessible handbook introduces the ICF to professionals working with children with disabilities and their families. It contains an overview of the elements of the ICF but focusses on practical applications, including how the ICF framework can be used with children, families and carers to formulate health and management goals. The Appendices contain case studies for individuals and interdisciplinary teams to work through and discuss, alongside other resources, and a copy of an ICF code set for children and youth is available to download online. Importantly, the book includes a chapter written by a parent of a child with impairments, illustrating the potential diverse applications of the ICF framework. The ICF’s relationship with patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and future alternatives to the current ICF framework are also examined. Clinicians, paediatricians and other healthcare providers in neurodisability, community-based health professionals, policy makers and the families and carers of children with disabilities will find this title an indispensable resource.

Download or read book An Introduction to Professional and Executive Coaching written by Sheila Boysen-Rotelli and published by IAP. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coaching profession is growing and innovating. According to the International Coaching Federation (ICF), coaching earns over $3 Billion per year with over 100,000 practitioners of coaching. This book is for both practitioners and scholars of executive coaching. Coaching is an exciting and powerful skillset that allows individuals to empower others and helps individuals to generate awareness that opens the door for great levels of success. The approach of this book is to look at the theoretical framework of coaching as it applies to the actual practice of coaching others and groups. It is important to ground practice in theory and research to bring together the researched framework to help to inform the approach. There is an old proverb that states: “Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but no one knows why.” The approach of this book will enable the student with the theory, the processes and the skills to coach in a way that works and to be able to understand the why behind the success as well as make it replicable.
Download or read book Clinical Pathways in Stroke Rehabilitation written by Thomas Platz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book focuses on practical clinical problems that are frequently encountered in stroke rehabilitation. Consequences of diseases, e.g. impairments and activity limitations, are addressed in rehabilitation with the overall goal to reduce disability and promote participation. Based on the available best external evidence, clinical pathways are described for stroke rehabilitation bridging the gap between clinical evidence and clinical decision-making. The clinical pathways answer the questions which rehabilitation treatment options are beneficial to overcome specific impairment constellations and activity limitations and are well acceptable to stroke survivors, as well as when and in which settings to provide rehabilitation over the course of recovery post stroke. Each chapter starts with a description of the clinical problem encountered. This is followed by a systematic, but concise review of the evidence (RCTs, systematic reviews and meta-analyses) that is relevant for clinical decision-making, and comments on assessment, therapy (training, technology, medication), and the use of technical aids as appropriate. Based on these summaries, clinical algorithms / pathways are provided and the main clinical-decision situations are portrayed. The book is invaluable for all neurorehabilitation team members, clinicians, nurses, and therapists in neurology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, and related fields. It is a World Federation for NeuroRehabilitation (WFNR) educational initiative, bridging the gap between the rapidly expanding clinical research in stroke rehabilitation and clinical practice across societies and continents. It can be used for both clinical decision-making for individuals and as well as clinical background knowledge for stroke rehabilitation service development initiatives.
