The test-retest analysis showed that ICC was 0.80 or higher for 12 of the ARNC items. A strong or modarete correlation between ARNC and the other instruments was found in all functional scales and for most items. CFA of the 13-item two-factor model showed a RMSEA value of 0.04, CFI and TLI values of 0.97 and 0.96, and a SRMR value of 0.05, indicating a satisfactory model fit.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The evaluation of the ARNC suggests that it is an acceptable and reliable screening instrument for detecting symptoms and signs indicating a possible need of rehabilitation. The medium to strong correlations between ARNC items and the EORTC QLQ- C30 items and scales suggest that ARNC could be an alternative also for research purposes when a shorter and less comprehensive instrument is needed. The simple design could be an advantage as it lowers the burden on cancer patients.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s41687-024-00818-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,5]],"date-time":"2024-12-05T17:04:47Z","timestamp":1733418287000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Validation of the Assessment of Rehabilitation Needs Checklist in a Swedish cancer population"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6185-2328","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emma","family":"Ohlsson-Nevo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Fogelkvist","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lars-Olov","family":"Lundqvist","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Johan","family":"Ahlgren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan","family":"Karlsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,5]]},"reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"818_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"757","DOI":"10.1016\/j.canep.2014.10.002","volume":"38","author":"G Zhao","year":"2014","unstructured":"Zhao G et al (2014) Current depression among adult cancer survivors: findings from the 2010 behavioral risk factor Surveillance System.

We received several incomplete consent forms that we had to return for a signature. They were never returned, resulting in a lower response rate. Participants were assured that they had the right to withdraw from the study at any point throughout the study. To ensure confidentiality, personal data were coded. Participant and study-related data are stored in digital form and are password-protected. The final results of this study will be disseminated by the research team to health care professionals, and relevant public and political groups. Presentations will be given at community forums such as patient support groups, in the media and at relevant national and international scientific conferences.","order":3,"name":"Ethics","group":{"name":"EthicsHeading","label":"Consent for publication"}},{"value":"The authors declare that they have no financial or other competing interests to disclose.","order":4,"name":"Ethics","group":{"name":"EthicsHeading","label":"Competing interests"}}],"article-number":"142"}}
