RESUMEN
STUDY DESIGN: Qualitative studies. OBJECTIVE: To develop clear and specific administration and scoring procedures for the Spinal Cord Independence Measure Version 3.0 as a performance-based and interview assessment. SETTING: Research lab. METHODS: Modified Delphi Technique survey methods were used in this study. Previously developed SCIM-III administration and scoring procedures for performance-based and interview versions were presented to clinicians experienced in SCI and SCIM-III using the Qualtrix (Qualtrics, Provo, UT) online survey platform. Summary and descriptive statistics were used to assess the percent agreement survey responses. RESULTS: Three survey rounds were necessary to achieve 80% agreement or above for the performance-based version. Two survey rounds were necessary to achieve 80% agreement or above on the interview version. CONCLUSIONS: This study describes the development of standardized administration and scoring procedures for the self-care and mobility sub-scales of the SCIM-III as a performance-based and interview version.
