Exploratory pilot testing of the psychometric properties of the person engagement index instrument among older, community-dwelling adults

The objective of this paper was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the <em>Person Engagement Index </em>with community dwelling older adults and determine the factors that impact this population’s <em>capacity</em> to engage in healthcare. This non-experimental pilot...

Testing in different settings with other populations and over time is warranted to further explore the reliability and validity of the <em>Person Engagement Index</em> for different subgroups and its sensitivity to changes in health status that may impact a person’s capacity to engage in care.Ellen SwartwoutTaya IrizarryAnnette DabbsScott BarnettThe Beryl Institutearticlepatient-centeredpatient engagementpsychometric testingolder adultsMedicine (General)R5-920Public aspects of medicineRA1-1270ENPatient Experience Journal (2017)
