COBO-MEJIA, Elisa Andrea; QUINO-AVILA, Aura Cristina; DIAZ-VIDAL, Diana Milena y CHACON-SERNA, Magda Juliette. Face validity of the Gross Motor Function Measure - 88. Univ. Salud [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.1, pp.45-57. ISSN 0124-7107.
Introduction: The Gross Motor Function Measure, designed in 1990, is a specific test for the assessment of gross motor function used mainly in children with cerebral palsy. The aim of this paper is to present the face validity of the test in its 88 version, focusing on cross-cultural component. Materials and methods: A descriptive study, where the Spanish adaptation published in 2009 was sent to three experts, to subsequently identify the acceptability index. Results: the overall acceptance rate of 0.85 is considered good, showing a lower rate on the dimension B and higher in D, with 100% agreement in 66.66% of the items studied. Conclusions: The cultural validation of the test is presented with a good index of acceptability for clinical practice.
