Brief Summary: our research team will develop a new CADL scale for stroke patients over the next three years

In the first year we had established a CADL item bank of 50 items The investigators will administer the 50 items on 300 patients with stroke living in the community Then we will select 10 to 15 items from the item bank for the CADL scale based on the International Classification of Functioning Disability and Health ICF the opinions of an expert panel and Rasch analysis It is anticipated that the CADL scale will have unidimensionality an interval level of measurement soundly psychometric characteristics a reduced number of items and ease of administration

In the second and third years we will compare the psychometric properties of the CADL scale and the combined BI and FAI scale The psychometric properties investigated will include reliability eg inter-rater reliability intra-rater reliability and internal consistency validity eg concurrent validity convergent validity predictive validity and discriminant validity and responsiveness A total of 150 patients will be recruited Both the CADL scale and the combined BI and FAI scale will be used on patients from the initial stage within one month to six months after hospital discharge The results will be useful for researchers and clinicians to determine whether the CADL scale is better than the combined BI and FAI scale in stroke patients
