Abstract

The purpose of the this study was to identify validity and reliability of the Korean version of the London Handicap Scale (K-LHS) measuring participation restriction for stroke survivors within outpatient rehabilitation setting. 54 stroke patients participated. The reliability was good with a Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ and intraclass correlation coefficient of .791 and .983, respectively. The results of exploratory factor analysis was that the K-LHS was constructed two factors and explanation power was 72.32%. There are significant correlation between K-MBI and subitems of K-LHS (r=-.454 ~ -.819)(p<.01), except economic item. Because the K-LHS seems to be a valid and reliable, thus, it is considered to be appropriate as a tool to measure participation restriction of stroke patients in clinical practice.

이 연구는 뇌졸중 환자의 참여제한을 측정하는 도구인 한국판 London Handicap Scale의 타당도와 신뢰도를 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. 외래 재활치료를 받고 있는 뇌졸중 환자 54명을 대상으로 하였다. 한국판 LHS의 문항내적일치도는 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ 값이 .791이었고, 급간내상관계수는 .983으로 신뢰도가 높았다. 구성타당도를 알아보기 위해 탐색적 요인분석을 실시한 결과, 한국판 LHS는 2개의 요인으로 구성되며 설명력은 72.32%인 것으로 나타났다. 한국판 LHS와 한국판 수정바델지수와는 경제상태 항목을 제외하고 모든 항목에서 유의한 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타났다(r=-.454 ~ -.819)(p<.01). 한국판 LHS의 신뢰도와 타당도가 높기 때문에, 임상에서 뇌졸중 환자의 참여제한을 측정하는 도구로 사용되는데 적절한 것으로 여겨진다.
