Methods: Over several iterations, the STAR, questionnaire was created with AYA, family, and health provider input. The development and pilot testing of the STAR Questionnaire took place with the assistance of 1219 AYAs with different chronic health conditions, in multiple institutions and settings over three phases: item development, pilot testing, reliability and factor structuring. Results: The three development phases resulted in a final version of the STARx Questionnaire. The exploratory factor analysis of the third version of the 18-item STAR, identified six factors that accounted for about 65% of the Adult health responsibilities, and Resource utilization. Reliability estimates revealed good intemal consistency and temporal stability, with the alpha coefficient for the overall scale being.80. The STAR, was developmentally sensitive, with older patients scoring significantly higher on nearly every factor than younger patients. Conclusion: The STARx Questionnaire is a reliable, self-report tool with adequate internal consistency, temporal stability, and a strong, multidimensional factor structure. It provides another assessment strategy to measure self-management and transition skills in AYAs with chronic conditions. 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
