Is the Give Youth a Voice questionnaire an appropriate measure of teen‐centred care in paediatric oncology: a Rasch measurement theory analysis

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Adolescents have their own views about the cancer care they receive and how they feel they are treated, but their opinions are rarely solicited. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the 56-item Give Youth a Voice (GYV-56), its subscales and its 20-item short-form, are clinically meaningful and psychometrically sound instruments that can be used to measure teen-centred care (TCC) in paediatric oncology.
