Planning ahead: Development of a brief, self‐report measure to assess advance care planning self‐efficacy and readiness in informal caregivers of persons with cognitive decline
The proposed ACP survey may be useful to clinicians and researchers evaluating ACP self-efficacy and preparedness in informal PWCD caregivers who are engaging in ACP activities with their CR. Future directions include administering the proposed survey to a clinical sample of informal PWCD caregivers to evaluate its psychometric properties, including internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity.
