| Popis: | Home economists involved in research and intervention with families need measures with which to explore family functioning. The utility of such measures turns, of course, on the measurement integrity of the scores that given protocols yield. The present study was conducted to explore the measurement characteristics of scores from one potentially useful measure, the Perceived Adequacy of Resources (PAR) Scale. The reliability and the validity of PAR total and subtest scores were evaluated using data from 113 mothers. Sixty of these families included children who were typically developing, whereas 53 families included a child with either a disability or a developmental delay. Results were generally favorable regarding the integrity of scores from the measure. |
