Lutien Bakker,Wim H. van Brakel-2012-06-01-Leprosy Review

TL;DRAbstract

The ES is the tool most widely used to measure empowerment, but adequate validation in a developing country context is still lacking. Cultural validity should be assessed in any culture before it is used. Further research is needed to develop empowerment instruments for developing countries and to assess the equivalence criteria, including psychometric properties of such questionnaires.
