- The study focused on validating the Performance Evaluation Tool based on the modified Barthel Index (PET-MBI) for assessing Activities of Daily Living (ADL) in patients.
- It involved 53 patients and 18 experienced occupational therapists to determine the consistency of ratings (inter-rater and intra-rater reliability).
- The results indicated strong reliability, with high inter-rater and intra-rater scores, suggesting that PET-MBI could serve as an effective self-administered tool for large-scale ADL surveys.
