“…Two raters were occupational therapists and one was a physical therapist, with considerable experience (18-33y) with outcome assessment and research with children with CP. The selected measures were the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment (CAPE), 18 the School Function Assessment (SFA), 21 the School Outcome Measure (SOM), 16 Children Helping Out: Responsibilities, Expectations, and Supports (CHORES), 20 Assessment of Life Habits (LIFE-H), 17 the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), 22 and Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS). 25 Discrepancy between raters occurred for the CHORES and SOM as to whether they met the inclusion criteria.…”

This study systematically reviewed the validity, reliability, sensitivity to change, and clinical utility of measurements of participation for children with cerebral palsy. Sixteen measures were identified and seven met the inclusion criteria of having 30% content measuring participation, for use with children aged 5 to 13 years with physical disability, and were condition specific. The Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment (CAPE) assessed participation in leisure and recreation, while the School Function Assessment (SFA) and School Outcome Measure addressed participation in the school environment. The Assessment of Life Habits for Children (LIFE‐H) measured participation in home, school, and community life, and the Children Helping Out: Responsibilities and Expectations assessed children's participation in household duties. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) and Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) were individualized tools used to evaluate goal achievement. Results showed most instruments had adequate reliability and validity. The COPM and GAS were the only measures that reported adequate responsiveness to detect clinically significant change. Limited data are currently available to determine the responsiveness of the CAPE, LIFE‐H, and SFA. A combination of assessments is required to capture participation of children in home, school, and community environments.

“…The performance and assistance scores for each task are added up, producing partial scores for the self-care and family-care subscales, as well as total scores. High performance scores suggest that the child performs a large number of household tasks; high assistance scores indicate self-initiated performance or greater independence in performing household tasks 23,24,25 . The Brazilian-Portuguese version of the CHORES showed indices of test-retest reliability greater than 0.90, illustrating strong consistency when administered within an interval up to 14 days 23,25 .…”

“…Parents and caregivers were interviewed with this 34-item structured questionnaire and provided information on the participation of their children and adolescents (ages 6 to 14 years) in household tasks, categorized into two subscales: self-care tasks and family-care tasks 23,24 . Self-care tasks refer to caring for own belongings and own needs, e.g., "puts away own clothes" and "makes self a snack. "…”

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a heterogeneous condition associated with functional impact on several dimensions of a child' s life 1 . This heterogeneity may be partially explained by the diversity of symptoms contributing to clinical presentations with distinct functional compromise 2,3 . ADHD is characterized by variable degrees of hyperactivity, impulsivity, and/or inattentive symptoms, affecting children' s participation in school and in their household routine .In school, children with ADHD usually exhibit worse academic performance than children developing typically Conflict of interest:There is no conflict of interest to declare. ABSTRACTThis study evaluated the associations among symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) in children and adolescents' performance in household tasks and assistance provided by caregivers. Parents of children from 6 to 14 years old with ADHD (n = 67) were interviewed with the Children Helping Out: Responsibilities, Expectations, and Supports (CHORES) instrument. Significant correlations were found between symptoms of ODD and assistance in self-care tasks (r = −0.31; p = 0.01); symptoms of hyperactivity correlated with assistance in self-care (r = −0.30, p = 0.01); and family-care (r = −0.25, p = 0.04) tasks. Age was directly associated with the number of tasks performed by children and inversely related to the assistance provided by caregivers. A greater number of ODD symptoms resulted in more household assistance from caregivers. Characteristics of ODD symptoms, such as disobedience and hostility in the face of authority, may limit these children in accessing household tasks by their own initiative, requiring assistance from caregivers.Keywords: environment; behavior; attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity; caregivers. RESUMOEste estudo avaliou transversalmente a correlação entre sintomas de transtorno de déficit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH) e de oposição com desempenho de crianças e adolescentes nas tarefas domésticas e assistência disponibilizada pelos cuidadores. Pais de crianças e adolescentes com TDAH (n = 67), de 6 a 14 anos, foram entrevistados com o children helping out: responsibilities, expectations and supports (CHORES). Foram encontradas correlações significativas entre sintomas de oposição e assistência em cuidado próprio (r = -0,31; p = 0,01) e de hiperatividade com assistência em cuidado próprio (r = -0,30, p = 0,01) e em cuidado familiar (r = -0,25, p = 0,04). Idade está diretamente correlacionada ao número de tarefas desempenhadas pela criança e inversamente associada à assistência disponibilizada pelos cuidadores. Maior número de sintomas de oposição resultou em maior assistência disponibilizada. Características dos sintomas de oposição, como a desobediência e hostilidade frente às autoridades, são limitantes para que essas crianças acessem as tarefas por iniciativa própria, demandando maior assistência dos cuidadores.

“…Dunn 22 comments on the importance of the participation of children in household activities for their global development and the acquisition of a variety of behaviors and skills required for an independent life. Other studies corroborated this argument by documenting that, due to a regular participation of the child in these activities, there was improvement in self-control abilities 23 , development of pro-social behaviors 24 , and a decrease in behavior-related problems 25 .…”
