Abstract
There is a gap in understanding adults' readiness to plan for adaptions across the aging trajectory. The purpose of the current psychometric project was to develop and test the Planning for Aging and Frailty Questionnaire. Clinical experience and extant literature formed the basis for creating items measuring planning for aging. Content validity was established with gerontology and health service research experts. Face validity testing was conducted through two cognitive interviewing and debriefing sessions at a senior center. All survey questions resulted in a content validity index ≥0.80 from experts. Face validity testing involved successful completion of the survey by 12 adults followed by cognitive interviewing/debriefing, resulting in minor changes. The 21-item Planning for Aging and Frailty Questionnaire demonstrates good initial validity and can be used to measure readiness in planning for aging and personal experiences and experiences with others. Further testing with additional usage is warranted. [Research in Gerontological Nursing, 15(5), 239-244.].
