“…In honor of Danish mathematician Georg Rasch, the Rasch Measurement model bears his name. RMM has been used extensively in areas such as education Khusaini et al (2017) , psychology Chen et al (2021) and rehabilitation Post et al (2022) .…”

Monitoring athletes’ well-being by using subjective or objective approach is oneof the important aspects to ensure optimum performance for both technical andphysical during match or training. Athlete Self Report Measure (ASRM) is one ofthe subjective approaches and it is used widely at the global level. However, mostASRM are still printed on paper RESTQ-Sport is one of the well-known ASRM andit is established using Classical Test Theory (CTT). This study aims to re-validateRESTQ-Sport via a different approach; by implementing Item Response Theory(IRT) which will convert ordinal data to interval data for a sound and prudentobjective measurement. A total of 45 respondents volunteer to participate in thepilot study; and based on the interaction between respondents (person) and items, areliability index of 0.95 and 0.93 is recorded for both person and item. The responsefor this pilot study yields an explained variance by measures of 53.2%, while 9.2%is the unexplained variance. Further scrutiny is made for improvement, and thetest is re-analyzed. It is evident that the explained variance by measures improvetremendously to 56.9%; whilst the unexplained variance is reduced to 5.4%.

“…An extended version, the QoL-BDS V2.0, was developed recently, based on earlier findings from our research team (18). Previously published results from this international project showed satisfactory reproducibility and internal construct validity of the QoL-BDS V2.0 (19,20). However, no publications on the sensitivity of either version of the QoL-BDS to measure meaningful changes in QoL are available.…”

Context/Objective: Examine the sensitivity of the International Spinal Cord Injury Quality of Life Basic Data Set V2.0 (QoL-BDS V2.0) to reflect changes in mobility and secondary health conditions (SHCs) between inpatient rehabilitation and one-year follow-up. Design: International longitudinal study. Questionnaires were administered at baseline (Median 6 weeks, interquartile range 4-10 weeks post-onset) and after 12 months. Setting: Spinal cord rehabilitation institutions in the US, Brazil, Australia and the Netherlands. Participants: : Individuals with recent onset of spinal cord injury or disease (SCI/SCD) admitted to inpatient rehabilitation.Outcome measures: The QoL-BDS V2.0, comprises four items on satisfaction with 'life as a whole', 'physical health', 'psychological health', and 'social life'. Mobility level was measured with a single item and SHCs with the SCI Secondary Conditions Scale (SCI-SCS). Results: Of the 160 participants, 61% had SCI, 48% had tetraplegia and 82% were wheelchair-users. Scores on 'life as a whole', 'physical health' and the total scale were significantly higher at follow-up compared to baseline in the total sample and the SCD subgroup, but not in the SCI subgroup. Increases in 'physical health', 'psychological health', 'social life' and the total score were significantly associated with improvements in the SCI-SCS or mobility scores. Participants with improved SCI-SCS and mobility at follow-up showed significantly more improvement in satisfaction with social life and the total score compared to participants without such favorable changes. Conclusion:The results of this study provide partial evidence of responsiveness of the QoL-BDS V2.0 total score as a measure of QoL among individuals with SCI/SCD.

“…The QoL-BDS includes three questions on satisfaction during the previous four weeks with (1) life as a whole, (2) physical health and (3) psychological health [5]. Prior research in inpatient and community settings provided evidence of its cross-cultural validity [11], convergent and discriminant validity [12,13], inter-rater reliability [14] and metric properties [15].…”

Study design: International Classi cation of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) linking study.Objective: The International Spinal Cord Injury Quality of Life (QoL) Basic Data Set (QoL-BDS) consists of three items on satisfaction with life as a whole, physical health and psychological health. To examine the need for a fourth item on satisfaction with social life, the aim of this study was to explore aspects of social life relevant to QoL.Setting: four specialized outpatient clinics in SCI/D rehabilitation.Methods: Secondary analysis of data from 39 cognitive interviews with individuals with spinal cord injury or disease (SCI/D) for at least one year. Participants were asked to de ne their concept of QoL, their satisfaction with life as a whole, physical health and psychological health, and to comment on other issues relevant to their QoL. Coded text fragments were linked to the ICF using established linking rules.Fragments were considered to refer to social life if their content could be linked to ICF chapters d6-d9.Results: For responses to the items the rate of text referring to social life was 35.8%, 24.9%, 6.0% and 34.9% respectively. The most frequent ICF categories were d760 Family relationships, d770 Intimate relationships and d920 Recreation and leisure. Most frequent responded social topics to the 'other issues' item were d770 Intimate relationships, d760 Formal relationships, and d870 Economic self-su ciency. Conclusion: Social life was relevant to QoL of people with SCI/D. Adding an satisfaction with social life item to the QoL-BDS would make this instrument a more comprehensive measure.
