  • The Functionality Appreciation Scale (FAS) measures how much individuals appreciate their body's abilities, with a focus on validating the French version through three studies.
  • Study 1 involved 383 young women and found good reliability and validity, while also confirming a single-factor structure.
  • Study 2 and 3 confirmed this structure through further analyses in diverse groups, reinforcing the scale's consistency and supportive findings across both genders, solidifying its use for French populations.

Background: Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) is a serious condition that affects 1-2 per 1,000 newborns.

Objective: The main goal of this study was to describe the prevalence of neuro-psychomotor developmental disorders in children aged between one and five years old who have been hospitalised at birth in a neonatal intensive care unit for the management of PPHN.
