Measuring disability has proven problematic mainly due to the use of differing definitions and parameters. The World Health Organization’s (WHO) International Classification of Functioning Disability and Health (ICF) describes the outcome of disability at three different levels (WHO, 2001). Firstly, as an impairment of a body function or structure; secondly; in terms of limitations of activities; and, finally, in terms of participation restrictions. This framework acknowledges the complexity of defining disability and has great potential for the collection of meaningful disability data.

WHO (2001). International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), Geneva: WHO.

No issues.Our institution is developing an SRACP evaluation program, but we have found it challenging to identify suitable outcome indicators.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?

I have designed a large-scale survey about the life satisfaction of low-income families in Hong Kong. Is it appropriate to use the electronic survey through mobile phones?
