ABSTRACT
Abaoğlu, H. Developing of The Family Functioning Scale in Rehabilitation.
Hacettepe University Institute of Health Sciences Physical Therapy and
Rehabilitation Programs Doctorate Thesis, Ankara, 2015. The aim of this study
was to develop a reliable and valid instrument, which measures family functioning in
rehabilitation programs. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 100
individuals working in pediatric rehabilitation field in order to identify characteristics
to be measured. Fourteen experts were given the scale to provide content validity of
the items that was developed after analysis of qualitative data. The scale obtained
from expert opinion evaluations was administered to 440 parents of children with
special needs. Item analysis was performed for internal consistency of the scale.
Exploratory Factor Analysis Techniques were applied to explore the construct validity
of the scale. The factor loadings of items on the scale ranged from .492 to .773. Factor
analysis revealed that the scale contains 48 items within four factors, representing
49.94 % of the total variance. These factors were identified as awareness, attitude
and behavior, community participation and engagement in rehabilitation. Internal
consistency reliability of the scale was found .943 by using Cronbach Alpha
Coefficient. Data, obtained from second administration to 200 people from the
sample after a two-week interval, were analyzed in order to evaluate test-retest
reliability. Pearson correlation coefficient between two administrations was found to be
.772. This value indicates that The Family Functioning Scale in Rehabilitation has an
acceptable level of test-retest reliability. In conclusion, it can be said that the Family
Functioning Scale in Rehabilitation meets the required criteria and has adequate
psychometric properties to measure roles of families of children with special needs in
rehabilitation programs.
