Abstract

We investigated the internal structure, internal consistency reliability, and convergent validity of the Meaningful and Psychologically Rewarding Occupation Rating Scale (MPRORS). The American Occupational Therapy Association occupational profile interview, MPRORS, and the Meaningful Activity Participation Assessment (MAPA) were administered to 21 study participants. Principal Axis Factor Analysis indicated trends supporting the two-factor structure of the MPRORS. Internal consistency reliability was generally good for the psychologically rewarding scale and acceptable for the meaningfulness scale. Convergent validity of the meaningfulness scale, when compared with the MAPA meaningfulness scores, was not supported. Further validation research with larger heterogeneous samples is indicated.
