| Classification |
Disorder-specific classifications were assigned with respect to the overall collection of PROMIS measures. Use of individual item banks or short forms depends upon the study design or type of research involved unless additional guidance is noted.
The item bank is included in the General CDE recommendations and the item bank and short forms are recommended for NeuroRehab.
NeuroRehab Supplemental - Highly Recommended:
Recommendations for Use: Indicated for studies requiring a measure of participation. Intended for use in community settings since participation takes place in the community.
Supplemental - Highly Recommended: Stroke, Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (CMD) in studies of psychosocial functioning, quality-of-life, outcome, and long-term adjustment studies.
Supplemental: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Chiari I Malformation (CM), Epilepsy, Friedreich's Ataxia (FA), Headache, Huntington's Disease (HD), Mitochondrial Disease (Mito), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Myasthenia Gravis (MG), Neuromuscular Diseases (NMD), Duchenne/Becker Muscular Dystrophy (DMD/BMD), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), Parkinson's Disease (PD), Stroke, and Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), and Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysms and Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH)
Exploratory: Cerebral Palsy (CP), Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy (DM), Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD), and Sport-Related Concussion (SRC)
*Headache specific subtest recommendations: Anxiety (Adult/Pediatric), Depression (Adult/Pediatric), Sleep (Adult)

| Short Description of Instrument |
The Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Ability to Participate in Social Roles and Activities Adult Item Bank and Short Forms (4a, 6a, 8a) assess the perceived ability to perform one's usual social roles and activities. Items are worded negatively in terms of perceived limitations, but responses are reverse-coded so that higher scores represent fewer limitations (better abilities). The item bank does not use a time frame (e.g., over the past seven days) when assessing ability to participate in social roles and activities. See List of Adult Measures for details.
PROMIS contains calibrated item banks with Likert style items for approximately 70 domains (e.g., anger, anxiety, depression, fatigue (Cella et al., 2010; Garcia et al., 2007), pain (Amtmann et al., 2010), physical function, satisfaction with social activities and roles, sleep/wake disturbance, and global health). It is part of the NIH goal to develop systems to support NIH-funded research supported by all its institutes and centers. PROMIS measures cover physical, mental, and social health and can be used across chronic conditions.
The instrument is domain-focused (domains listed above) rather than specific to a particular disease; however, a disease-customized measurement approach can be utilized by choosing the PROMIS measures most relevant to the specific disease. For example, there would be extra time up front (compared to a standardized single measure) to select and agree upon appropriate CMD-specific items but would be worthwhile in the long term if other researchers studying CMD agree to use the CMD specific items identified.
See: PROMIS Domain Framework for pediatric and adult domains
Administration: There are two administration options for assessing Ability to Participate in Social Roles and Activities: short forms (4a, 6a, 8a) and computerized adaptive test (CAT). With CAT, participant responses guide the system's choice of subsequent items from the full item bank (35 items in total). Although items differ across respondents taking CAT, scores are comparable across participants and over time. PROMIS measures can be administered in three ways: on paper (short forms and profiles only); by computer; with an app.
Time: For CAT version, variable but design based on item-response theory algorithms to minimize time. For short forms, the administration time is 1-3 minutes.
Ages: Adult ages 18+.
Cost: No licensing or royalty fees for English and Spanish PROMIS measures used in individual research, clinical practice, educational assessment, or other application. Translations in other languages are subject to a distribution fee. Permission is required for commercial use or integration into proprietary technology; see PROMIS Terms and Conditions of Use for details.
Available in Spanish and specific domains are available in multiple other languages; see PROMIS Translations for details.

| Comments/Special Instructions |
NeuroRehab Specific: The PROMIS Ability to Participate in Social Roles and Activities item bank and short forms (4a, 6a, 8a) are self-reported measures of participation.
|
| Scoring and Psychometric Properties |
Scoring: T scores for all scales.
In all cases, a high score means more of domain. For example, higher scores on the fatigue measures indicate poorer health whereas higher scores on physical functioning measure indicate better health.
Standardization Population: For most domains, T-scores relate to the US General Population. See PROMIS Calibrations Testing for further details regarding sample for specific ages and domains.
Scoring Manuals are available at: PROMIS Scoring Manuals
Psychometric Properties: Substantial qualitative and quantitative evidence has been gathered that supports the validity of PROMIS measures. More information about validation is available at: PROMIS Validation
|
| Rationale/Justification |
Strengths: PROMIS Ability to Participate in Social Roles and Activities Short Forms (4a, 6a, 8a) are brief, yet reliable.
Weaknesses: Coverage of all aspects of participation is not comprehensive. Use of the item bank requires CAT software.
