Comprehensive Assessment for Paratransit and Transit Skills Manual 1st Edition

Beschreibung

The Comprehensive Assessment for Paratransit and Transit Skills (CAPTS) provides a reliable measure of a person's cognitive abilities and learned skills needed to independently both public transit and paratransit services. One Assessment for all Paratransit and Fixed Route Public Transit based on Dr. Cecilia Feeley's award-winning Paratransit Skills Assessment that was refined and expanded with updated tasks from Functional Assessment of Cognitive Transit Skills. CAPTS provides one simplified resource for evaluating and determining a person's ability to use the entire continuum of public transit services. CAPTS is a criterion-referenced assessment designed using 48 discrete tasks organized under five hierarchical units. The CAPTS measures all the skills needed to use transit services ranging from a hand-to-hand paratransit service to a complex fixed-route transit trip that includes a vehicle transfer. In addition, there are two supplementary sections for evaluating the trip planning and scheduling skills needed for public transit independence: one for paratransit and one for fixed-route services.
