Progress in Development of the Index of ADL

Katz, S., Downs, T. D., Cash, H. R., Grotz, R. C.·1970·The Gerontologist

Abstract

The Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (ADL), now in frequent use in rehabilitation settings, has application for prevention of disability and maintenance of rehabilitation gains in the aging person in all settings. Since the Index is sensitive to changes in meaningful self-care functions, uses well-defined criteria, and can be broadly taught to non-professionals, it has considerable practical value as a longitudinal measure of change and predictor of adaptive capacity in terms of community residences and congregate living facilities.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
