Abstract
Background and Purpose: Possibilities to age in place are increasingly important with the demographic shift toward aging populations. With the Person-Place Fit Measure for Older Adults (PPFM-OA), older adults self-assess how their home and community environments suit their needs. The aim of the study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Swedish version of PPFM-OA. Methods: Four hundred sixty community-living adults aged 65 and older answered the PPFM-OA. Rasch model was used for analyses. Results: A reduced 19-item version of PPFM-OA showed sufficient evidence of validity in response processes, internal structure, fairness in testing, and reliability/precision. Conclusions: The reduced version is recommended to use in Sweden to capture person-place fit, an aspect to consider when communities, healthcare, and elder care aim to facilitate aging in place.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Nursing Measurement specifically addresses instrumentation in nursing. It serves as a prime forum for disseminating information on instruments, tools, approaches, and procedures developed or utilized for measuring variables in nursing research, practice, and education. Particular emphasis is placed on evidence for the reliability and validity or sensitivity and specificity of such instruments. The journal includes innovative discussions of theories, principles, practices, and issues relevant to nursing measurement.
