Concurrent Validity and Reliability of the Transfer Assessment Instrument Questionnaire as a Self-Assessment Measure.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Transfer Assessment Instrument Questionnaire (TAI-Q), a self-assessment measure to evaluate transfer quality compared with clinician-reported measures.

Design

Participants self-assessed transfers from their wheelchair to a mat table using the TAI-Q. For session 1, participants self-assessed their transfer both before and after reviewing a video of themselves completing the transfer (session 1). Self-assessment was completed for another transfer after a 10-minute delay (session 2, intrarater reliability) and after a 1- to 2-day delay (session 3, test-retest reliability). Self-assessment was compared with a criterion standard of an experienced clinician scoring the same transfers with the Transfer Assessment Instrument
