Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation Medicine
  • Psychometrics
  • Neurology

Background:

  • Social functioning is crucial for stroke patient recovery and quality of life.
  • Existing assessments may be time-consuming or lack precision in clinical settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a Computerized Adaptive Test of Social Functioning (Social-CAT) for post-stroke patients.
  • To create a reliable and efficient measure for assessing social abilities in stroke survivors.

Main Methods:

  • A unidimensional item bank of social-related items was constructed from existing quality-of-life measures.
  • Items with differential item functioning (DIF) related to sex were removed.
  • Simulations were used to identify optimal stopping rules for test administration.
  • The final item bank comprised 23 items, validated using data from 263 stroke patients.

Main Results:

  • The Social-CAT item bank demonstrated unidimensionality with acceptable item fit.
  • The test achieved high reliability (average person reliability =.88) using an average of 10 items.
  • 81% of patients reached a reliability of ≥.90, indicating efficient and precise measurement.

Conclusions:

  • The Social-CAT is a reliable and efficient measure of social functioning for stroke patients.
  • Its adaptive nature and brevity make it suitable for time-constrained clinical environments.
  • This tool can aid clinicians and patients in evaluating and managing social recovery after stroke.
