| Author's, vendor's, or publisher's description | The PIADS is an easy to use self-rating scale designed to measure the impact of rehabilitation products on the quality of life of the users of these products. PIADS rates products on items that reflect important aspects of quality of life: Adaptability (reflecting attitude toward social participation and risk-taking), Competence (reflecting perceived functional capability, independence and performance), and Self-esteem (reflecting self-confidence, self-esteem, and emotional well being). PIADS has been shown to be a reliable and responsive measure that, because of its brevity, can be easily included with routine clinical assessments. |
