Purpose.
This study aimed to translate the English version of the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) into Chinese and to evaluate the initial validation of the Chinese version (C-ARAT) in patients with a first stroke.
Methods.
An expert group translated the original ARAT from English into Chinese using a forward-backward procedure.
Forty-four patients (36 men and 8 women) aged 22–80 years with a first stroke were enrolled in this study.
The participants were evaluated using 3 stroke-specific outcome measures: C-ARAT, the upper extremity section of the Fugl–Meyer assessment (UE-FMA), and the Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT).
Internal consistency was analysed using Cronbach’s α coefficients and item-scale correlations.
Concurrent validity was determined using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients.
Floor and ceiling effects were considered to be present when more than 20% of patients fell outside the preliminarily set lower or upper boundary, respectively.
Results.
The C-ARAT items yielded excellent internal consistency, with a Cronbach’s α of 0.98 (p < 0.001) and item-total correlations ranging from 0.727 to 0.948 (p < 0.001).
The C-ARAT exhibited good-to-excellent correlations with the UE-FMA and WMFT functional ability (WMFT-FA) scores, with respective ρ values of 0.824 and 0.852 (p < 0.001), and an excellent negative correlation with the WMFT performance time (WMFT-time), with a ρ value of -0.940 (p < 0.001).
The C-ARAT subscales generally exhibited good-to-excellent correlations with stroke-specific assessments, with ρ values ranging from 0.773 to 0.927 (p < 0.001).
However, the gross subscale exhibited moderate-to-good correlations with the UE-FMA and WMFT-FA scores, with respective ρ values of 0.665 and 0.720 (p < 0.001).
No significant floor effect was observed, and a significant ceiling effect was observed only on the WMFT-time.
Conclusions.
The C-ARAT demonstrated excellent internal consistency and good-to-excellent concurrent validity.
This test could be used to evaluate upper extremity function in stroke patients without cognitive impairment.
