The study purpose was to determine the psychometric credibility of the Personal Projects Approach (PPA) with persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Test-retest and alternate form reliability, face and convergent/discriminant validity, and clinical utility were examined. Thirty-eight MS and 25 control participants were involved. Results indicated that the number of personal projects listed, the cross-impact rating score, and 9 of 19 dimensions achieved 48-hour test-retest reliability with ICC values greater than .70. The nine dimensions were: absorption, control, time adequacy, progress, outcome, other's view, stress, difficulty, and negative impact. Four dimensions (enjoyment, value congruency, initiation, and physical ability) had ICCs between .60 and .69. Alternate form reliability testing indicated that sequencing of dimensions was not a factor in responses.

520 $a The study purpose was to determine the psychometric credibility of the Personal Projects Approach (PPA) with persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Test-retest and alternate form reliability, face and convergent/discriminant validity, and clinical utility were examined. Thirty-eight MS and 25 control participants were involved. Results indicated that the number of personal projects listed, the cross-impact rating score, and 9 of 19 dimensions achieved 48-hour test-retest reliability with ICC values greater than .70. The nine dimensions were: absorption, control, time adequacy, progress, outcome, other's view, stress, difficulty, and negative impact. Four dimensions (enjoyment, value congruency, initiation, and physical ability) had ICCs between .60 and .69. Alternate form reliability testing indicated that sequencing of dimensions was not a factor in responses.
520 $a Face validity of modules 1 and 2 was supported by unsolicited comments of respondents and through a procedural and theoretical analysis. Contributing factors included listing personal projects relevant to respondents, flexibility to use population relevant dimensions, and the considerable attention given by respondents. Module 3 face validity was unclear due to the lack of clarity on which respondents' judgments were based.
520 $a Convergent/discriminant validity were tested by evaluating the ability of the PPA to discriminate between MS and control participants. There was no difference between groups for number of personal projects listed (x 2=.004, p=.95) or cross-impact score (x2=.06, p=.81). Of the 10 personal project categories, no difference between groups emerged. The categories academic (x2=3.16, p=.08) and work-related (x 2=3.33, p=.07) set themselves apart from other categories. No differences between groups emerged for 16 of 19 dimensions. Of these 16, three (control, stress, and challenge) had p-values between .05 and .07. Three dimensions (difficulty, negative impact, and physical ability) showed a significant difference (p≤.035). This study was not powered for principle components analysis, though other studies have shown 4 out of 6 of these dimensions loaded onto one factor variously called stress, project strain, or anxiety-absorption.
520 $a Testing clinical utility raised three issues: writing requirement, session duration, and instructions. These were accommodated and the PPA was determined to be feasible. Findings suggest that PPA is a credible and acceptable method for research with persons with MS.
