| Objective:To investigate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the quality of upper extremity skills test for children in order to guide the clinical practice.Methods:After we got the original writers' permission and authorization,the English version of the QUEST was translated into Chinese.Seventy children with spastic cerebral palsy were recruited as paticipants:30 of them were recruited for the test-retest reliability,with an interval of 2 weeks,and 30 of them were selected for inter-rater reliability.Parallel validity was analyzed by calculating the correlations between different raw scores of QUEST and PDMS-FM of 50 children.Results:Different raw scores of QUEST possessed excellent test retest and inter-rater reliablities (ICC>0.90).Good parallel validity (Pearson r=0.717-0.921) was found between different raw scores of the Chinese version of QUEST and PDMS-FM.Conclusion:Reliability and validity of Chinese version of QUEST were determined in this study.It can be used as an effective measuring tool to evaluate upper extremity skills of children with spastic cerebral palsy. |
