Descrição detalhada
Recovery in mental health extends beyond symptom reduction and includes hope, self-confidence, autonomy, meaning, and continuity of self. As described by Anthony (1993) and further developed through the CHIME framework, recovery is a deeply personal process involving connectedness, hope, identity, meaning, and empowerment. Although French translations of the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS) have been used previously, no comprehensive psychometric validation of a French version is currently available for routine use in French-speaking psychiatric settings.
VAL-RAS-FR is a monocentric, prospective, observational study designed to cross-culturally adapt, validate, and develop derived versions of the 41-item Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS) for use in French-speaking mental health settings. The study will enroll 260 adult psychiatric patients receiving care at EPSM Metz-Jury, including patients from inpatient units, day hospital settings, community mental health centers (CMP), and EPSIAD follow-up services. Participants will complete self-report questionnaires including the French version of the RAS (RAS-FR), the WHOQOL-BREF, and complementary questionnaires exploring factors associated with subjective recovery. A subgroup of 50 participants will complete the RAS-FR again after one month to assess test-retest reliability.
The study has three complementary objectives. First, it aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the French version of the RAS, including validity, internal consistency, dimensional structure, and test-retest reliability. Second, it will explore an existential dimension of recovery through the development of the RAS-FR-EX (Existential Extension), an exploratory extension designed to assess aspects such as continuity of self, reconstruction of meaning, and the experience of existing after psychological crisis. Third, it will support the exploratory development of a shorter version of the scale, the RAS-FR-SF (Short Form), intended to facilitate future clinical use while preserving the core dimensions of subjective recovery.
The study does not involve any modification of usual care, invasive procedures, or additional medical examinations. By combining psychometric validation with exploratory clinical development, VAL-RAS-FR aims to provide a validated French-language measure of subjective recovery, improve the assessment of recovery-oriented outcomes in psychiatric care, and contribute to the development of clinically useful tools for French-speaking mental health services.

Adult psychiatric patients
Adult psychiatric patients receiving care at EPSM Metz-Jury (inpatient units, day hospital, community mental health centers [CMP], and intensive home-based psychiatric care services [EPSIAD]) who are able to complete self-report questionnaires in French.
|
Participants complete self-report questionnaires including the French version of the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS-FR), the WHOQOL-BREF, and complementary questionnaires related to subjective recovery.
The study also includes the exploratory assessment of six additional existential items.
A subgroup of 50 participants will complete the RAS-FR again after one month to assess test-retest reliability.

Recovery Assessment Scale - French Version (RAS-FR): Total Score, Internal Consistency, Factor Structure, and Test-Retest Reliability
Prazo: Baseline and 1 month
|
The Recovery Assessment Scale - French Version (RAS-FR) is a 41-item self-report questionnaire assessing subjective recovery in mental health.
Total scores range from 41 to 205, with higher scores indicating a higher level of subjective recovery.
Psychometric analyses will include internal consistency, dimensional structure, and test-retest reliability.

Correlation between Recovery Assessment Scale - French Version (RAS-FR) and WHOQOL-BREF (World Health Organization Quality of Life - Brief Version) scores
Prazo: Baseline
|
Assessment of convergent validity through correlations between the Recovery Assessment Scale - French Version (RAS-FR) total score and WHOQOL-BREF domain scores in adult psychiatric patients, with particular attention to the psychological and social relationship domains.
The RAS-FR total score ranges from 41 to 205, with higher scores indicating a higher level of subjective recovery.
WHOQOL-BREF domain scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better perceived quality of life.
Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients will be calculated.

|
Existential dimension of recovery (RAS-FR-EX) composite score
Prazo: Baseline
|
Exploratory assessment of the existential dimension of recovery using six additional items integrated into the French version of the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS-FR-EX).
A composite score ranging from 6 to 30 will be calculated, with higher scores indicating a stronger endorsement of existential recovery processes.

|
Development of a short-form Recovery Assessment Scale - French Version (RAS-FR-SF)
Prazo: Baseline
|
Exploratory item reduction analyses based on responses to the 41-item Recovery Assessment Scale - French Version (RAS-FR).
The objective is to identify a shorter version of the instrument while preserving its psychometric properties and conceptual coverage of subjective recovery.
