Undersökning av förutsättningarna att utveckla ett frågeformulär utifrån ICF 2001 som utvärderar självupplevd delaktighet i hörselkrävande situationer

Abstract

The aim of the current study is investigate the prerequisites for designing a questionnaire in Swedish based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) by the WHO (2001), for estimation of perceived participation in hearing demanding situations (DHS). The questionnaires presently used in Audiology emanate from the International Classification of Impairment, Disability and Handicap, which was launched in 1980. In the ICF, the term "handicap" has been replaced to "participation".
