[null,"The Ageing Better Measures Framework is a compendium of scales, measures and surveys grouped into a variety of ageing-related topics (see below for a full list).\n\nIt is intended as a tool that enables individuals and organisations to quickly find a measure, scale or survey related to their specific area of work. Most of the scales and measures have a brief description, links to external web resources, and some additional information about how the scale or measure has been tested for validity and reliability. The included surveys mostly have an overview of the topics covered within that survey, and a link to an external website.\n\nThe Framework is not exhaustive, and no claims are being made as to whether the included scales or measures are the \"best\" ones to use. If you would like to suggest an additional measure or scale, or have any feedback on the tool then please use the \"contact us\" button below.\n\nYou can see all of the included items arranged by topic in the \"Topics\" tab. If you know the name of the scale, measure or survey you are looking for then please refer to the \"Index\" tabs."]

It's purpose was to assess the test-retest reliability (a measure of the test's reliability over time) of a range of outcome measures in stroke patients.\n\nMethod: Twenty-two patients >1 year post-stroke were tested twice at an interval of 1 week using the Barthel Index (BI); the Rivermead Mobility Index (RMI); the Nottingham Extended Activities of Daily Living Scale (NEADL); and the Frenchay Activities Index (FAI). The mean difference (bias) and reliability coefficient (random error) were calculated for the total scores.

There was little bias between assessments. The performance of the BI and RMI were better with lower random error. The NEADL and FAI did not perform as well having larger random error components. Percentage agreements were generally high especially for the BI (>75% ) and RMI (>85% ), but there was considerable variation in the kappa coefficients.

[null," "]
[null,"This tool is designed to gauge social isolation in older adults by measuring perceived social support received by family, friends and mutual supports (eg. neighbours), including confidant relationships. It consists of 12 items which measure size, closeness and frequency of contacts of a respondent’s social network.

Other items ask about helping others, having confidants, being a confidant and current living arrangements."]

[null,"Scores for each question range from zero to five, with zero indicating minimal social integration and five indicating substantial social integration. The LSNS-R total score is an equally weighted sum of the 12 questions. Scores range from 0 to 60 with higher scores indicating a greater level of social support and low risk for isolation. A score less than 20 may indicate a person with an extremely limited social network and high risk for isolation. Low scores have also been correlated with mortality, all-cause hospitalizations, physical health problems, depression and other mental health problems, and a lack of adherence to good health practices."]

According to Weiss, these provisions reflect what we receive from relationships with other people.  The six provisions include guidance (advice or information), reliable alliance (assurance that others can be counted on in times of stress), reassurance of worth (recognition of one’s competence), attachment (emotional closeness), social integration (a sense of belonging to a group of friends), and opportunity for nurturance (providing assistance to others).\n\nAlthough Weiss was attempting to describe what we receive from relationships with other people, his description of the social provisions is very similar to other theoretical models of different types of social support (see discussion by Cutrona & Russell, 1987, 1990)."]
[null,"Using the Social Provisions Scale, scores can be derived for each of the six provisions as well as for a global social support score.

[null,"Social Disconnectedness, Perceived Isolation, and Health among Older Adults"]
["General description","Previous research has identified a wide range of indicators of social isolation that pose health risks, including living alone, having a small social network, infrequent participation in social activities, and feelings of loneliness. However, multiple forms of isolation are rarely studied together, making it difficult to determine which aspects of isolation are most deleterious for health. Using population-based data from the National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSHAP), this database combines multiple indicators of social isolation into scales assessing social disconnectedness (e.g., small social network, infrequent participation in social activities) and perceived isolation (e.g., loneliness, perceived lack of social support). It examines the extent to which social disconnectedness and perceived isolation have distinct associations with physical and mental health among older adults. Results indicate that social disconnectedness and perceived isolation are independently associated with lower levels of self-rated physical health. However, the association between disconnectedness and mental health may operate through the strong relationship between perceived isolation and mental health. The authors conclude that health researchers need to consider social disconnectedness and perceived isolation simultaneously."]
[null,"Previous research has employed indicators of numerous aspects of isolation, but no single indicator captures the complex nature of social isolation. One of the strengths of the NSHAP data is its variety of social connectedness measures. A social disconnectedness scale is constructed based on eight items assessing respondents’ lack of connectedness to other individuals and social groups."]
[]
["The measures, dimensions or items","Social network characteristics comprise four of the scale items. Social network measures included in NSHAP allow the characterization of respondents’ relationships with other individuals and the networks within which respondents are embedded (see Cornwell et al. 2008). To capture respondents’ social networks, respondents were asked the following question:"]
[]
[null,"From time to time, most people discuss things that are important to them with others. For example, these may include good or bad things that happen to you, problems you are having, or important concerns you may have. Looking back over the last 12 months, who are the people with whom you most often discussed things that were important to you?"]
[null,"The social disconnectedness scale also incorporates the number of friends reported by each respondent. Excluding their spouses and family members, respondents indicated how many “people you consider to be your friends, both your closest friends and people with whom you are pretty good friends.” This question was modularized, so that a random two-thirds of respondents answered the question during the in-person interview, and one-third encountered it in the questionnaire. Mean response does not differ according to the collection mode."]
[null,"Items assessing the lack of participation in social activities outside of the home are also included in the scale. Respondents were asked how often they volunteer, attend meetings of an organized group, and socialize with friends and family. Each of these items was included in the questionnaire."]

["Further background","The scale has acceptable internal consistency, with an alpha of .73 and moderate to strong item-rest correlations. Two components—social network characteristics (eigenvalue = 2.75) and social participation (eigenvalue = 1.55)—account for about 54 percent of the variance."]

["Further background","Studies of reliability and validity indicate that the LSES is both clinically and theoretically appropriate. \n\nLife satisfaction as assessed by the SWLS shows a degree of temporal stability (e.g., .54 for 4 yrs), yet the SWLS has shown sufficient sensitivity to be potentially valuable to detect change in life satisfaction during the course of clinical intervention. Further, the scale shows discriminant validity from emotional well-being measures. The SWLS is recommended as a complement to scales that focus on psychopathology or emotional well-being because it assesses an individual's conscious evaluative judgment of his or her life by using the person's own criteriaThe concept of life satisfaction is a construct universally accepted as a valid measurement of quality of life in the elderly. While recent investigators have questioned whether life satisfaction specifically measures happiness, well-being or morale, few doubt its clinical validity."]

["General description","The CASP-19 is a quality-of-life measure comprising four domains ('control', 'autonomy', 'pleasure' and 'self-realization'), developed initially in a population aged 65-75 years. "]
[]
[null,"The original CASP-19 scale was designed as part of relatively small study using data from the Boyd-Orr cohort looking at how lifecourse factors impacted on quality of life at older ages. However, when the team reviewed the then existing measures of quality of life (QoL) that were used amongst older people they found that they were often focused on measuring (poor) health and failed to capture the more positive (as well as negative) aspects of ageing. To redress this, they developed the CASP 19 scale. It was designed to cover the active and beneficial experiences of later life rather than simply focus on the medical and social care issues that had traditionally been seen to typify ageing research. "]
[]
["The measures, dimensions or items","The scale is composed of 4 sub-scales, the initials of which make up the acronym: Control, Autonomy, Self-Realization and Pleasure."]
[]
[null,"CASP has a clear theoretical basis – grounded in the work of both Maslow and Giddens. Drawing on these two theorists it was argued that it was possible to identify areas of human need, which could be seen as domains of quality of life, but that these should include both material and post-material dimensions. Following the success of the scale in the original study it was quickly picked up for use in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA) and from there a revised version (CASP-12v1) was included in the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). "]
[null,"The response options and item scoring are based on the CASP-19 as it appears in the English Longitudinal Survey of Ageing (ELSA). This differs from the original paper but has now become the most commonly used format. The same scoring format should be used for the abridged versions of the scale with the relevant items. Higher scores indicate better quality of life.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"]

Connor and Davidson (2003) evaluated the instrument in three samples: generally healthy adult community-dwellers, primary care patients and persons with post-traumatic stress disorder.  The scale demonstrated high internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and convergent validity with indicators of positive psychological health.  Lamond et al (2008) tested the psychometric properties of the CD-RISC in a large sample of women over 60.  Their findings suggested that the CD-RISC is an internally consistent scale for assessing resilience in older women."]
[null,"The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) has been studied and validated within several groups (South African and Chinese adolescents, Korean students, firefighters, nurses, and Indian students). The studies conducted among the Chinese adolescents and Korean students showed that the original five-factor model of the CD-RISC was reproducible, the studies in India, South Africa, Australia and the United States did not find the model to be reproducible. Additionally, in two studies (Cambells-Sills and Stein, 2007) the original 25-item CD-RISC was even shown to be unstable over two identical populations. This lead to the development of the 10-item version of the instrument. The CD-RISC 10 established concrete psychometric factors."]

Each dimension has a 3 point response scale designed to indicate the level of the problem. Part II uses a vertical graduated VAS (thermometer) to measure health status, ranging from worst imaginable health state to best imaginable health state.

There is also an optional set of demographic questions.\n\nScoring/Interpretation: Descriptive data from the 5 dimensions of Part I can be used to generate a health-related quality of life profile for the subject. Part II is scored from 0 (worst health state imaginable) to 100 (best health state imaginable). The score from Part II can be used to track changes in health, on an individual or group level, over time (McDowell & Newell, 1996)."]
