Abstract
Aims: The assessment of motor and process skills (AMPS) is an internationally well-established, in German speaking countries rarely known as outcome measurement, which evaluates the performance of activities of daily living (ADLs) in regard to effort, efficiency, safety, and need for assistance (ICF- category activity/participation). It measures motor and process skills. The AMPS was validated worldwide with 150,000 persons for all diagnostic categories and persons aged 2 years and older. After the occupational therapist observed and evaluated 1 person's ADL performance, the raw scores are imputed and analyzed with a Rasch-software that generates graphic and/or written reports. These reports set the person's ADL performance in relation to normative mean values and to standardized scores which enable meaningful clinical interpretations. We scrutinized the ability of this instrument to capture progress in clinical pediatric neurorehabilitation in the area of ADL.
