  • Title: Exploring trends: tracking evaluations data over several months by therapists and parents of children with cerebral palsy.
    Author: Hayashi R, Frost CJ.
    Journal: J Soc Work Disabil Rehabil; 2007; 6(4):1-14. PubMed ID: 18077277.
    Abstract:
    A pilot study was conducted at the outpatient rehabilitation unit of a children's hospital to explore the overall performance trends of children in daily life as perceived by their parents, compared to the evaluations of therapists. A performance goal was set for each child by his/her therapist and parent at an initial consultation. Over a six-month period, data were collected from the parents of children with cerebral palsy (N = 53), and therapists assessed children at each therapy session as well. The evaluations of both parents and therapists showed statistically significant upward trends in performance over several months.
