摘要
The Measure of Processes of Care for Service Providers (MPOC-SP) is a 27-item self-assessment questionnaire for pediatric caregivers, designed to measure their reported implementation of family-centered service (FCS). The MPOC-SP was adapted from the well-validated and widely used measure in pediatric rehabilitation, the Measure of Processes of Care. In this article we describe the developments field testing, properties, and utility of this instrument. Four MPOC-SP factors were generated by exploratory factor analysis; each factor addresses a distinct facet of FCS (Cronbach's alpha for these scales is .86, .88, .76, and .84). Validity analyses revealed that MPOC-SP scale scores discriminate between reported caregiving behaviors and ideal levels of FCS implementation, and also reflect cross-discipline differences in professional roles. It is expected that the MPOC-SP will be useful in the program evaluations, research initiatives, and professional development endeavors.
