The French Client Assessment of Strengths, Interests, and Goals (CASIG-rev) tool effectively measures personal recovery in individuals with mental disorders, demonstrating good reliability and sensitivity to change. This validated tool aids practitioners in evaluating interventions and supporting patient recovery journeys.

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry and Mental Health
  • Psychometrics
  • Rehabilitation Science

Background:

  • Existing tools often fail to capture the multifaceted nature of personal recovery in mental health.
  • Personal recovery involves autonomy, relationships, health, self-acceptance, professional life, and life projects.
  • The Client Assessment of Strengths, Interests, and Goals (CASIG) was adapted to address these dimensions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To validate the revised French version of the CASIG (CASIG-rev) for measuring personal recovery.
  • To assess construct validity, test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and clinical sensitivity to change.

Main Methods:

  • 272 individuals from French-speaking countries completed the CASIG-rev, Ryff's well-being measure, Recovery Assessment Scale, and WHODAS online.

  • Test-retest reliability was assessed with a subgroup of 29 individuals after 1 month.
  • Clinical sensitivity to change was evaluated with 24 individuals after 6 months.

    • Main Results:

    • Confirmatory factor analysis supported a 5-factor model, closely aligning with the proposed 6-factor structure.
    • The CASIG-rev demonstrated good convergent validity with measures of similar concepts.
    • The tool showed strong test-retest reliability for most scales and sensitivity to clinical changes, particularly in life project development.

    Conclusions:

    • The CASIG-rev is a valid and reliable tool for assessing personal recovery in individuals with mental disorders in French-speaking contexts.
    • It can assist practitioners in evaluating program effectiveness and guiding interventions.
    • Further validation in English is planned to broaden its international applicability.
