This score is derived from the individual #ADL Components collected following general collection instructions in ADL General Collection Information and component-specific criteria defined on the individual component pages listed below.


How is this derived

What we collect

ADL components

see infobox

ADL component scores

For each of the #ADL Components the individual component fields are stored as their full words rather than scores. s_ADLOptions table stores the corresponding scores used in the ADL score or the ALERT Scale as follows:

For criteria see the pages of the individual elements linked above
Option ADL_Score ALERT_Score Explanation
Major 6 6 major assistance
Minor 3 3 minor assistance
Unassisted 1 0 unassisted / independent

Deviation from Katz's definition

This deviates from the original scoring in Katz' paper:

  • they only used 2 options
  • they assigned the higher score to the unassisted

Combined ADL Score

The ADL Score is the sum of points of all the six activities.
