      • Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) is a method that can be used as a means of measuring outcome data from different contexts set out on a 5 point scale of -2 to +2. It enables the data to be placed on a quantitative measurement scale thus tackling the problem of how to adequately identify and measure qualitative goal impact and attainment.

    GAS comprises of goals divided into a 5-point scale from -2 to +2. 1. Achievement of goal = 0 2. Achieved somewhat more than expected outcome = +1 3. Achievement of much more than expected goal = +2 4. Achievement of somewhat less than expected goal = -1 5. Achievement of much less than expected goal = -2 As some goals may be more difficult to achi...

    In the analysis of systematic reviews within the last decade, it was found that inter-rater reliability (IRR) was good, but varied according to a number of factors including: 1. The person scoring - IRR improved when the physician or therapist treating the patient as well as the raters observed the patient directly, instead of a recording being wat...

    One of the criticisms of GAS is that it doesn't measure one clear construct. This is because of the individualistic nature of the goal setting. This makes validity difficult to assess. Despite this, research done in 2016found that content validity produced results that were "good" or "intermediate".

  5. Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) is a tool which documents a patient’s goals, and then scores the extent to which they are attained. The goals are unique to the patient and their situation. The scoring of their attainment is standardised on a scale from “much less than expected” through to “much better than expected”.
