- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Response Classes Matrix was used to assess interaction between the therapist and parent. Matrix consists of 8 possible antecedent and consequent behaviors. For each interval, three sequential behaviors are coded: parent’s antecedent behavior, therapist’s response, and the parent’s consequent behavior or vice versa. From each family-therapist dyad, four sessions were videotaped to code parents and therapists behaviors.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM): an individualized measure of changes in goal activities that are meaningful to the child and family. The parents rate their child’s performance and parental satisfaction with performance on a scale of 1 to 10. ;Adapted Family Empowerment Scale (FES): FES was designed to measure empowerment in families whose children have disabilities. The FES consists of 34 items that ask about different areas of parent life including family, child’s healthcare service, and community. We adapted 20 items from the FES to reflect the context of physical therapy service. ;Experience Questionnaire was developed to understand parents and therapists experiences during intervention. The questions on the parent and therapist versions are almost same but wording that reflects responders and 4 additional questions for parents.
