Geriatric adults (at least 65 years of age) completed the Functional Status Questionnaire twice, first using the original paper-and-pencil format and again using one of six computer-based interactive methods. Scoring via original and computer-based methods was identical. Satisfaction with computers was high. Of the interactive methods, touchscreen required least training and questionnaire completion time and was rated most useful.

Acceptable Reliability

To examine the psychometric adequacy of two existing instruments, the Functional Status Questionnaire (FS IIR) and the Parent Behavior Checklist (PBC), in two ethnic minority groups. Age-specific items that were not relevant for children ages 1 to 5 were removed from the FS IIR and PBC. Measures were administered to 196 Latino and African American parents of children aged 1 to 5. Reliability, variability, item-convergence, and factor structure were examined. The results highlight common pitfalls in using existing measures in populations other than those on which they were originally developed. Both measures were modified resulting in all scales having low or acceptable reliability. Construct validity was supported for both the FS IIR and the PBC through confirmation of hypothesized relationships. In both ethnic groups, factor analyses supported the hypothesized factor solutions for the FS IIR and the PBC. Use of measures in minority groups requires researchers to be cognizant of the issues of psychometric adequacy in all groups. The psychometric properties of the FS IIR and the PBC were generally acceptable for Hispanics and African Americans, but each had some problems in at least one psychometric characteristic in one or both groups. Different factor loadings for some items for Hispanics and African Americans suggest different interpretation of items between the two cultural groups.

Functional Status Questionnaire

For year research on quantifying how well individual’s function has been reported. Assessing function is particularly important in the older adults, as the prevalence of functional disability increases with age. In Indonesia, there is a lack of studies that measure the functional status of the older adults. There is even less research on evaluating the psychometric properties of an instrument. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the psychometric properties of the evidence supported functional status instrument consisting of the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), the Functional Status Questionnaire (FSQ) and the Physical Performance Test (PPT). This study using the validation design with descriptive approach. And 401 subjects aged more than 60 years old were recruited purposively from five districts in Aceh. Every instrument showed good validity and reliability and has been used either for research purposes or in clinical setting. All subjects completed the FSQ, SPBB, and FSQ assessment. Correlation between SPPB and PPT were higher than FSQ when assessed for convergent validity the FSQ had comparable correlations with the reported health status. However, relationship between SPPB, PPT and FSQ were inconsistent. The findings of this study is expected to support the psychometric properties of all three instrument for functional status assessment in Indonesian Older adults, and SPPB appear to be the best among the other instruments to use in the nursing practice.

La prescription d’Arrêts de Travail (AT) en début de traitement des épisodes dépressifs majeurs (EDM) est souvent discutée en pratique clinique mais peu étudiée. L’objectif principal de cette étude était d’étudier les facteurs associés à la prescription d’AT en début de traitement. Dans une cohorte nationale prospective et observationnelle d’une durée de 12 semaines, réalisée en médecine générale, ont été inclus 5365 patients présentant un diagnostic d’EDM, nécessitant l’instauration d’un traitement antidépresseur, âgés de 18–65 ans, occupant un emploi ou en recherche active (âge moyen : 45,2 ± 10,4 ans ; 65,6 % de femmes ; ancienneté moyenne de la maladie : 6,5 ± 7,9 ans ; EDM sévère : 45,8 %). L’existence d’un AT et la réhabilitation fonctionnelle (Functional Status Questionnaire [FSQ]) ont été évaluées après six et 12 semaines après le début du traitement. Deux mille neuf cent dix-sept (54,4 %) patients ont un AT prescrit à l’initiation du traitement pour leur EDM. La prescription d’un AT à l’inclusion est associée aux facteurs indépendants suivants : sévérité de l’EDM, comorbidité psychiatrique. La poursuite de l’activité professionnelle à l’inclusion est associée aux facteurs indépendants suivants : ancienneté de l’EDM et origine perçue de l’EDM conjoncturelle/économique ou familiale. 5,6 % des patients après six semaines de traitement et 21,9 % après 12 semaines ont obtenu une rémission fonctionnelle globale (FSQ). Même si la fréquence de la rémission fonctionnelle après 12 semaines de traitement est plus fréquente chez les patients ayant bénéficié d’un AT en début de traitement que chez les autres (20,2 % versus 24,3 %, p < 0,001), l’analyse multivariée ne met pas en évidence d’impact positif de la prescription d’un AT en début de traitement sur la réhabilitation fonctionnelle ultérieure (p = 0,055), hormis pour la dimension des activités basiques de la vie quotidienne (p = 0,02). De nouvelles études seront nécessaires pour mieux cibler les patients bénéficiant d’un arrêt de travail en début de traitement de l’épisode dépressif majeur.
