“…In the ICF’s description of physical mobility, the language focuses on terminology that extends beyond the use of traditional biologic terms to include aspects of the context in which physical activities are performed. 25, 50, 51 The goal of our physical content model was to build upon the ICF to describe specific domains and sub domains of physical functioning relevant to the context of work.…”

“…These three major domains reflect integration of existing work-related conceptual models and current physical health outcome measurement instruments. 47, 50, 52, 57, 58 Sub-domains within the primary physical function domains include components such as fine motor dexterity, gross motor body movements, postural control and functional mobility that characterize various aspects of physical health applicable for assessing a person’s overall potential ability to function in a work environment. By expanding traditional models of physical impairment, this content model provides an opportunity to build a comprehensive item pool of questions targeting overall physical functioning relevant to the context of work.…”

Physical and mental impairments represent the two largest health condition categories for which workers receive Social Security disability benefits. Comprehensive assessment of physical and mental impairments should include aspects beyond medical conditions such as a person's underlying capabilities as well as activity demands relevant to the context of work. The objective of this paper is to describe the initial conceptual stages of developing new measurement instruments of behavioral health and physical functioning relevant for Social Security work disability evaluation purposes. To outline a clear conceptualization of the constructs to be measured, two content models were developed using structured and informal qualitative approaches. We performed a structured literature review focusing on work disability and There are no conflicts of interest to disclose of the author and co-authors.Publisher's Disclaimer: This is a PDF file of an unedited manuscript that has been accepted for publication.

These content models informed subsequent measurement properties including item development, measurement scale construction, and provided conceptual coherence guiding future empirical inquiry. The proposed measurement approaches show promise to comprehensively and systematically assess physical and behavioral health functioning relevant to work. NIH Public Access

“…Several factors and processes identified as relevant to vocational evaluation in this guideline mirror codes and categories from the International Classification of Function, Disability and Health's (ICF), which have been used most recently to develop a core sets for defining function in vocational rehabilitation [128][129][130][131]. For example, domains encompassing the assessment of physical and cognitive skills in the guideline relate to ICF codes within the level of body functions.…”

This is the fourth and final study designed to develop International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF, and children and youth version, ICF-CY) core sets for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). To investigate aspects of functioning and environment of individuals with ADHD as documented by the ICF-CY in clinical practice settings. An international cross-sectional multi-centre study was applied, involving nine units from eight countries: Denmark, Germany, India, Italy, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Sweden and Taiwan. Clinicians and clinical researchers rated the functioning level of 112 children, adolescents and adults with ADHD using the extended ICF-CY checklist version 2.1a. The ratings were based on a variety of information sources, such as medical records, medical history, clinical observations, clinical questionnaires, psychometric tests and structured interviews with participants and family members. In total, 113 ICF-CY categories were identified, of which 50 were related to the activities and participation, 33 to environmental factors and 30 to body functions. The clinical study also yielded strengths related to ADHD, which included temperament and personality functions and recreation and leisure. The study findings endorse the complex nature of ADHD, as evidenced by the many functional and contextual domains impacted in ADHD. ICF-CY based tools can serve as foundation for capturing various functional profiles and environmental facilitators and barriers. The international nature of the ICF-CY makes it possible to develop user-friendly tools that can be applied globally and in multiple settings, ranging from clinical services and policymaking to education and research.
