Summary

"This study compared staff and resident knowledge, attitudes and practices related to religious expression in long-term care settings. Staff and residents from 13 facilities and organizations providing services to long-term care staff completed a survey related to religion and spirituality in long-term care" (Walker et al. August 1998).

The ARDA has added five additional variables to the original data set to enhance the users' experience on our site.

Data File

Cases: 592
Variables: 129
Weight Variable: None

Variables ITEM11 - ITEM43 and AITEM11 - AITEM43 report responses given on items that vary by the module administered (variables ITEM1-10 and AITEM1-10 are the same for all modules). The module items and their variable descriptions by module number are reported at the end of this document.

Variable JOBTITLE reports the qualitative answers to codes found in the data file. The codes follow the module and item descriptions at the end of this document.

Data Collection

March to September 1998

Funded By

National Institute on Aging

Collection Procedures

Self-administered surveys featuring sets of the eight forms of the Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices related to Spirituality and Religion (KAPS-R) were sent to the participating facilities and completed between March and June 1998. All participants were instructed to read the statements and circle either Agree, Disagree, or Don't Know. Average time to complete the survey was 15 minutes.

Sampling Procedures

Staff (N=299) and residents (N=266) from long-term care facilities completed one of eight forms. Facilities included skilled nursing facilities, continuing-care residential communities (CCRCs), retirement apartment complexes and assisted living facilities located in California, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Oklahoma, Utah and Virginia. Some facilities had affiliations with Protestants, Catholic and Jewish groups, and some were unaffiliated. About half of the participants lived or worked in a facility that had a full-time chaplain.

Coordinators at each site estimated the number of staff and residents available to complete a survey. Each site received a set of surveys with equal numbers of the eight KAPS-R forms along with copies of a letter explaining the project. Approximately half of the surveys were completed.

MODULES

For each of eight topics related to religious expression and spirituality in long-term care, modules were given assessing general program objectives (ITEM01-ITEM10) and 33 separate items assessing one of the eight topics. Responses reported in the data file vary by MODULENU (module number)

Variable Descriptions for variables (ITEM11-ITEM43)in Modules 1-8 are reported below, along with the topic description of the module.

Variables AITEM11-AITEM43 are also variable by module. They are based on the modules' ITEM11-ITEM43, but have been coded as either "correct" or "wrong." "For each of the eight topics, the team developed training objectives and constructed items to assess related knowledge, attitudes and staff practices. Knowledge items were validated by consulting appropriate references; attitudes were considered correct if they reflected religious tolerance; practices were considered correct if they were proactive staff behaviors that would promote opportunities for religious expression and spirituality in long-term care" (Walker et al. 1998).
