Abstract
In this Masterclass we will discuss factors to consider when critically appraising standardised assessments and outcome measures for practice and research. This includes the assessments’ purpose, content and level of measurement, the adequacy of standardisation, and evidence of validity, reliability, and clinical utility. Several websites and resources to support your critical appraisal will be shared.
The Masterclass is being delivered by Professor Alison Laver-Fawcett, Professor in Occupational Therapy, and Emeritus Professor Diane Cox, co-authors of the textbook ‘Principles of Assessment and Outcome Measurement for Allied Health Professionals: Practice, Research and Development’, and Dr Margo van Hartingsveldt, Associate Professor. Both Alison and Margo have experience in developing and standardising occupational therapy assessments, including the development of assessments during their PhD studies.
