Development and content validity of the evaluation of multidimensional functioning and risks in aging scale

EMFRA provides a multidimensional framework for assessing functioning and risks in older adults, capturing physical, cognitive, emotional, and social factors. The inclusion of end-user feedback ensured the scale's practical relevance. However, the current version of EMFRA should not yet be used in clinical practice, as further psychometric validation is required to confirm its utility.

Abstract

EMFRA provides a multidimensional framework for assessing functioning and risks in older adults, capturing physical, cognitive, emotional, and social factors. The inclusion of end-user feedback ensured the scale's practical relevance. However, the current version of EMFRA should not yet be used in clinical practice, as further psychometric validation is required to confirm its utility.
