Reliability and Responsiveness of the Chinese Version of the Readiness for Return-To-Work Scale in Lost-time Claimants in Outpatient Occupational Rehabilitation in Taiwan

June 4, 2019 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital
The aim of the study is to measure the reliability and responsiveness of the Chinese version of the readiness for return-to-work (RRTW) scale. We would conduct a multiple-centered, prospective cohort study to require RRTW data in lost-time claimants in outpatient occupational rehabilitation in Taiwan.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes of the Readiness for Return-To-Work Scale scores during rehabilitation
Time Frame: The participants do the pretest of RRTW scale in the first week in their work hardening program, finishing the protest in the last week before the program ends. The duration depends on people. (In an average of 4-6 weeks)
Using the RRTW scale changes of the pretest and protest data to calculate the responsiveness.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from the Readiness for Return-To-Work Scale scores at 1 week
Time Frame: The participants do the pretest of RRTW scale in the first week in their work hardening program, and they do the retest after one week.
