Cross-Validation of the Factorial Validity of the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 in Patients With Stroke
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Neither the eight- nor the four-domain structure of the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 was supported, suggesting that scores may not provide valid assessments of HRQOL in clients with stroke.
