The Katz ADLs are scored on a scale of 0 to 6. Patients are assigned a score of 1 for each of 6 total activities (e.g., bathing, dressing, feeding) that they require assistance to complete. A score >0 indicates partial disability in ADLs.
The FAQ assessment of IADLs surveys patients on their ability to complete 10 tasks that support independent living (e.g., managing money, arranging transportation). Each activity is assigned a scaled score of 0–2 where 0 indicates participants can complete the task independently, 1 indicates that the participant requires some help to complete the task, and 2 indicates complete dependence on someone else to complete the task. All scores are totaled together and a score >2 indicates dependence in IADLs, whereas a score >8 indicates disability in IADLs.
The BDI-II surveys participants on 21 questions related to symptomatology of depression. Each item is rated on a severity scale of 0–3 where 0 indicates no presence of the symptom and 3 indicates the most extreme form of each symptom. The scores are totaled and classified as follows: 0–13 is minimal, 14–19 is mild depression, 20–28 is moderate depression, and 29–63 is severe depression.
The PCL-S is a 17-item self-report measure reflecting DSM-IV symptoms of PTSD. Each item/symptom is rated from 1–5 based on increasing severity where 1 indicates no presence of the symptom at all and 5 indicates extreme severity of the symptom. Scores are totaled together ranging from 17–85 and are classified as follows: 17–29 is little or no risk of PTSD, 28–29 is mild severity of PTSD, 30–44 is moderate severity of PTSD, and 45–85 is a high severity of PTSD.
