Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Studies assessing physical functionality with questions on ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs) commonly make use of self- and informant-report measures. OBJECTIVES:Delineate the scenarios from which disagreement can arise and show evidence for the presence of disagreements when reporting on ADLs. METHOD:Use information from a cross sectional study of community-dwelling minority aged adults and their informants to show how disagreement can arise in survey studies. RESULTS:Although disagreement between self and informant reports on ADLs exist, informants should be considered a reliable source of information. CONCLUSION:Informant reports should be used with caution when assessing complex and private ADLs.
