个人简介
My research involves children and youth with cerebral palsy (CP) and their families. I have engaged in
interdisciplinary research conducted in settings where children live and receive services. My early research
centered on motor development of infants born preterm and measuring change in children receiving therapy
services including use of goal attainment scaling. Research with colleagues at the CanChild Centre led to the
creation and validation of the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) for CP, which is the
international standard for research with over 2,000 citations. We created and validated gross motor function
curves for each of the five-levels of the GMFCS demonstrating that, on average, children with CP have
achieved 90% of their motor function capacity by age 7. We demonstrated that methods of mobility of children
and youth with cerebral palsy vary based on environmental and personal factors. Our findings indicate that
adolescents with CP are generally satisfied with their quality of life but report relatively lower satisfaction in
activities carried out to achieve personal goals. Noteworthy, quality of life was only weakly correlated with
functional abilities, supporting the current view of participation as a dynamic interaction between person
and environment
