27) The GARS consists of 18 items, covering 11 BADL and 7 IADL tasks, all scored on a 5-point scale (possible scoring range of 18-90 points, with higher scores indicating more limitations). The scale consists of 5 levels (1-5), with 1 indicating independence in both BADL and IADL and 5 indicating complete dependence. Questions from the Disability Supplement to the National Health Interview Survey were used to determine level of difficulty in 7 BADL tasks (ie, walking inside, bathing, dressing, eating, transferring, toileting, and walking outside) and 8 IADL tasks (ie, meal preparation, shopping, money management, telephone use, light housework, heavy housework, transportation, and medication management). |
