Background and Purpose: To determine the construct validity of the Mealtime Relational Care Checklist (M-RCC) when used with individual residents. Methods: Data was collected from 639 residents from 32 long-term care homes; M-RCC was completed at three meals for each resident and averaged. Bivariate analyses determined associations between the M-RCC and other resident level and dining room level measures. Results: Resident M-RCC was positively and significantly (p <.05) associated with three of five summary scales from Dining Environment Audit Protocol and Meal Time Scan as well as resident malnutrition risk (r s = 0.23). M-RCC was negatively associated with protein intake (gram per kilogram body weight; r s = -0.13) and Cognitive Performance Score (t -value = 4.48). Conclusions: The resident level M-RCC was significantly associated with other measures in expected directions demonstrating construct validity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
