Reliability of the Norwegian Version of the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment (CAPE) and Preferences for Activities of Children (PAC)

Abstract

Abstract.This study examined test-retest reliability of the Norwegian version of Children's Assessment

Fitness, Fun and Friends through Participation in Preferred Physical Activities: Achievable for Children with Disabilities?

“…As did previous studies (Imms, 2008;King et al, 2004, the Norwegian study (Nordtorp, Nyquist, Jahnsen, Moser & Strand, 2013) emphasises that the enjoyment dimension should be used with caution, especially as an outcome measurement. On the basis of the studies conducted by Bult et al (2010), King et al (2004) and Nordtorp et al (2013), it can be concluded that the reliability of the diversity and frequency dimensions is satisfactory.…”

“…However, the reliability of the enjoyment dimension (King et al, 2004;Nordtorp et al, 2013) is not consistently satisfactory (ibid).…”

Establishing the Cultural Equivalence of the Young Children's Participation and Environment Measure (YC-PEM) for Use in Singapore

“…Cultural adaptation studies often present psychometric properties of the translated version of the questionnaire but not results of the translation or how the items were culturally adapted (Ullenhag et al, 2012a; Nordtorp et al, 2013, Bult et al, 2010; Stofel & Berg, 2008). An exception is a study by Costa (2014) that translated and culturally adapted the Austrian-German Perceived Efficacy and Goal Setting System (PEGS) by interviewing 23 occupational therapists and a 14 year-old boy.…”

“…Several children’s participation and activity measures have been culturally adapted to ensure the relevance of the measure to a specific culture (Costa, 2014; Bult et al, 2010; Ullenghag et al, 2012a; Ullenghag et al, 2012b; Stofel & Berg, 2008; Nordtorp et al, 2013). Cultural adaptation improves consistency in the face and content validity between the original and culturally adapted versions of a measure (Guillemin et al, 1993).…”
