Child Caregiver Agreement in Participation

This study investigated the agreement between child-primary caregiver dyads in their perceptions of participation attendance and involvement and identified the potential differences in their selections of the most important activities to participate in. The participants were 143 children with neurodevelopmental disorders aged 6 to 12 years and their primary caregivers. Each of them completed the Picture my Participation (PmP) separately. Absolute agreement and weighted Kappa coefficients were calculated in the attendance and involvement scores between the child-primary caregiver dyads. The frequencies of each item selected as one of the three most important activities to the child were calculated.
