Sažetak

The aim of this pilot study was to conduct a preliminary
validation of the Recovery Steering
Wheel as an integrated instrument for assessing
personal, clinical, and functional recovery in people
with severe mental disorders. Methods: The
study included 22 users of a mobile rehabilitation
team. The Recovery Steering Wheel, an instrument
encompassing ten key recovery domains,
was administered within a semi-structured interview.
An exploratory factor analysis was conducted
to examine the instrument’s structure,
internal consistency was calculated, and convergent
validity was tested by comparing Recovery
Steering Wheel scores with selected standardized
psychometric measures of related constructs. Results: Exploratory factor analysis extracted three
components that conceptually correspond to personal,
clinical, and functional aspects of recovery,
explaining a total of 73.9% of the variance. The
Recovery Steering Wheel showed good internal
consistency (Cronbach’s α = .813). Most domains
of the instrument demonstrated significant and
theoretically expected associations with the corresponding
standardized measures, while the
total Recovery Steering Wheel score showed a
strong and consistent association with key measures
of personal and functional recovery. Conclusion:
The findings provide preliminary empirical
evidence that the Recovery Steering Wheel is
a reliable, conceptually grounded, and clinically
relevant instrument for the comprehensive assessment
of recovery in people with severe mental
disorders. Despite limitations related to the
small and convenience sample, the results indicate
its potential for independent use in clinical
and research practice and justify further studies
on larger and more diverse samples.
