ABSTRACT

The current climate in health care is increasingly raising the notion of evidence-based practice, and emphasizes the suggestion of evidence regarding the effectiveness of intervention. The importance of measuring the change after a period of intervention based on individualized intervention goals has increased. Therefore, measurements are also individualized depending on the severity of disability, intervention goals, and diversity of treatment. A Goal Attainment Scale (GAS), described as an individualized-measurement tool and criterion- referenced measure of change, can be applied to variable intervention goals and settings. Although there are several positive and negative attributes, the sustained use of GAS in the preceding research will be a testimony to its clinical utility. For review results of an experimental study with children, GAS is used for measuring the activity and participation in an ICF model. In the majority of studies, GAS is used for the effectiveness of intervention in children with cerebral palsy.
