Construct validity of Comprehensive High-Level Activity Mobility Predictor (CHAMP) for male servicemembers with traumatic lower-limb loss
Robert S. Gailey, PhD, PT, et al.
We developed a new outcome measure called
the Comprehensive High-Level Activity Mobility
Predictor (CHAMP) that assists military clinicians
in determining the capabilities of servicemembers
with traumatic lower-limb loss to perform high-level
mobility. One of the primary steps in developing the
CHAMP was to confirm that it actually measures
what it is intended to measure. We found that the
CHAMP was a valid measure of high-level mobility
in servicemembers with amputation. We also determined
that the CHAMP has the ability to discriminate
between different levels of lower-limb loss in
young, male servicemembers.
