Abstract

Increasing community participation can reduce the risk for functional disabilities; participation is influenced by person and environment contextual factors. Development and validation of a brief community participation assessment can advance and support evidence-based assessment in clinical rehabilitation counseling practice. It will be an invaluable rehabilitation and public health surveillance tool that can be used to gauge the health conditions and participation of people with disabilities. The current study evaluated and validated the Wisconsin Community Participation Scale (WCPS) in 982 individuals with chronic health conditions and disabilities. Participants indicated five most meaningful life roles: (a) being able to get around with or without help, (b) live independently with or without help, (c) live a healthy lifestyle, (d) work, and (e) engage in leisure and recreation activities. The WCPS scores were positively associated with physical health, mental health, and life satisfaction and negatively related to functional disability in the theoretically expected directions. The WCPS can help rehabilitation counselors assess their clients’ current level of participation in meaningful life roles that are important to them. Rehabilitation counselors can use the WCPS assessment data to guide treatment planning and empower clients to build confidence and self-efficacy to participate in personally meaningful activities in the community.

威斯康辛社区参与量表在社区慢性健康状况及残疾人士样本中的心理测量验证

增加社区参与可以降低功能性残疾的风险；参与受人和环境的语境因素的影响。开发和验证简短的社区参与评估可以促进和支持临床康复咨询实践中的循证评估。它将是一个宝贵的康复和公共卫生监测工具，可用于衡量残疾人的健康状况和参与情况。目前的研究对982名患有慢性健康状况和残疾的人的威斯康星州社区参与量表（WCPS）进行了评估和验证。参与者指出了五个最有意义的生活角色：（a）能够在有或没有帮助的情况下四处走动，（b）在有或无帮助的情况下来独立生活，（c）过着健康的生活方式，（d）工作，以及（e）从事休闲和娱乐活动。WCPS评分与身体健康、心理健康和生活满意度呈正相关，与理论预期方向的功能残疾呈负相关。WCPS可以帮助康复顾问评估他们的客户目前参与对他们来说很重要的有意义的生活角色的水平。康复顾问可以使用WCPS评估数据来指导治疗计划，并使客户能够建立信心和自我效能，参与社区中有个人意义的活动。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
