TY - JOUR PY - 1997// TI - Longitudinal Assessment of Stroke Survivors' Handicap JO - Topics in stroke rehabilitation A1 - Segal, M. E. A1 - Gillard, M. SP - 41 EP - 52 VL - 4 IS - 1 N2 - Proxy agreement for telephone administration of the Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique (CHART) to community-living individuals 18 months poststroke and their caregivers was assessed and compared to in-person interview of the same sample 1 year earlier. Proxy agreement was adequate for a summary score and for all but one of the dimensions (social integration), replicating prior findings. Physical independence, mobility, and occupation dimensions were intercorrelated. Scores for these dimensions at 6 months poststroke predicted later scores. The study contributes to the validity of the CHART, especially the physical independence, mobility, and occupation dimensions.
