Objective: The purpose of this study established the content validity of a Korean Version of the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI).
Methods: Thirty-eight allied pediatric health professionals completed a validity questionnaire for the content validity research. The validity questionnaire was asked to complete a modified version of the questionnaire used in Dutch and Puerto Rico, to evaluate the Korean version of the PEDI.
Results: At least ninety-seven percent of the respondents rated that the most important aspects of the each domain (self-care, mobility, social-function) in examining functional status were represented in the Korean version of the PEDI. Eighteen percent of the respondents need to add items to the self-care and mobility domains. Twenty-one percent of the respondents need to remove items from the self-care domain. The average of seventy-three percent of the respondents rated that the Korean version of the PEDI is feasible for discriminative and evaluative purposes, respectively.
Conclusions: This study indicated that the professionals confirmed the functional content and feasibility of the Korean version of the PEDI for outcome measurement in pediatric rehabilitation.
