Summary:ABILHAND-Kids is a structured parent report that assesses manual ability in activities of daily living in children with cerebral palsy, and also brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI). This study investigated the validity, test-retest reliability, and internal consistency of the ABILHAND-Kids in children with BPBI. The ABILHAND-Kids was administered to parents of 119 children with BPBI between 6 and 15 years for validity and internal consistency, also 92 parents were re-interviewed after two weeks to establish test-retest reliability. Its concurrent validity was examined by correlating scores on the ABILHAND-Kids with Active Movement Scale-Total Score. ABILHAND-Kids were strongly correlated with AMS-Total score (
