ADL-I: ADL Interview; AMPS: Assessment of Motor and Process Skills; ‡EORTC-QLQ-C30: European Organization for Research Treatment of Cancer Core Quality of Life Questionnaire. Item #30 “Global Quality of Life” is rated on an ordinal scale ranging from 1 (very poor) to 7 (excellent). The EORTC-scale categories 1, 2, and 7 are excluded due to very low numbers to fit in the statistical model. Data presented as the number (n) of subjects and percentage (%). 1Based on the median and range due to lack of normal distribution in data. 2Linear measures of self-reported (ADL-I) and observed (AMPS) qualities of ADL task performance expressed in Rasch-based logistically transformed units (logits).
