Exploratory factor analysis of the reintegration to normal living index in a stroke population.

CONCLUSIONS: Previous factor analyses on the RNLI utilizing general disability samples commonly report a two-factor solution. Our data support the presence of a single factor solution across the RNLI within a large sample comprised exclusively of stroke survivors. This suggests that the RNLI acts as more of a unitary measure of quality of life within a stroke sample relative to other disabled samples. PMID: 27486007 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
