Development of the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale-Ability and Actual Performance: A New Measure for People With Schizophrenia.
Article in Psychiatry investigation, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe study was to develop the instrumental activities of daily living scale-ability and actual performance (IADL-AA) to assess the ability and actual performance constructs of instrumental activities of daily living (IADL).
methodsEight experts reviewed the items of the IADL-AA. Additionally, 30 and 266 people with schizophrenia participated in cognitive interviews and validation analysis, respectively. Expert consultations and cognitive interviews were conducted to examine face validity and content validity, respectively. Construct validity was evaluated through Rasch analysis to ensure unidimensionality. Convergent validity was investigated using Pearson's r, discriminative validity was examined through floor and ceiling effects, and internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's alpha (α).
resultsThe IADL-AA comprised 23 items showing the unidimensionality of each domain. The infit and outfit mean squares were 0.76-1.21 and 0.68-1.40, respectively. A moderate correlation was observed between ability and actual performance domains (r=0.63). No floor or ceiling effects were found for the two domains (0.0%-6.0% and 1.5%-3.0%, respectively). Cronbach's α of the two domains was 0.83-0.90.
conclusionThe IADL-AA demonstrates satisfactory psychometric properties, including face validity, content validity, construct validity, convergent validity, discriminative validity, and internal consistency. This measure can effectively identify the capacity and degree of independence of IADL function in people with schizophrenia.
