Face validity of the youth Multiple Errands Test (yMET) in the community: A focus group and pilot study / Vanessa L. Hanberg in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 85 Issue 4 (Avril 2019)

The multiple errands test is an assessment of real-world executive functions and, to date, non-virtual reality multiple errands test research has focused primarily on adults with acquired brain injury in hospital settings. There is poor evidence across multiple errands test studies for content and face validity and limited studies in the community. This study aimed to explore multiple errands test face validity for typically developing youth (age 16–24 years) and describe their community setting performance on a youth multiple errands test. Methods A youth focus group (N = 5) was conducted to explore perceptions of the multiple errands test. From their input, the youth multiple errands test was developed and pilot tested (N = 9) in a shopping mall. Results Two themes emerged from focus group analysis and limited changes, relevant to youth, were made to develop the youth multiple errands test. The focus group and pilot study found the youth multiple errands test was acceptable and cognitively challenging for youth, with older youth performing better than younger youth. Overall youth multiple errands test performance suggests similarities to healthy adults in previous studies. Conclusion Findings must be interpreted with caution since the sample was small, but preliminary results indicate that future studies with the youth multiple errands test are feasible and warranted.

Scoping review of the Multiple Errands Test: Is it relevant to youths with acquired brain injury? / Vanessa L. Hanberg in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 81 Issue 12 (Décembre 2018)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 81 Issue 12 (Décembre 2018) . - p. 673-686 Titre : Scoping review of the Multiple Errands Test: Is it relevant to youths with acquired brain injury? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Vanessa L. Hanberg ; Diane E. MacKenzie ; Brenda K. Merritt Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : p. 673-686 Note générale : doi.org/10.1177/0308022618791714 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Occupational therapy  executive function  performance-based assessment  brain injuries  adolescent  young adult  youths Résumé : Introduction For youths who sustain acquired brain injuries, distinguishing typical development of executive function from the impairment(s) can be a challenging but critical assessment consideration. Occupational therapists working with individuals after brain injury can use the Multiple Errands Test as a performance-based assessment of the effect of executive dysfunction in the real world. Although numerous test versions exist for different settings and diagnostic populations, their relevance to youths is unclear. We surveyed the non-virtual reality literature for test versions to determine the measurement properties and clinical utility for assessing youths in a community setting. Method A scoping review was completed to summarize study purpose/design, Multiple Errands Test structure, assessment environment, sample characteristics, psychometric properties, clinical utility and main findings of the test versions. Results We included 10 quantitative studies and found the strongest reliability and validity evidence for male adults with moderate to severe acquired brain injury, in a hospital setting. Multiple Errands Test versions can distinguish people with brain injury from controls and identify challenges in the home and community. No studies examined the test performance of younger participants. Conclusion This review highlights the research of several Multiple Errands Test versions and identifies gaps in that research, including the need for development of a test version for youths in a community setting.
