Based on the consensus-based standards for the selection of health measurement instruments(COSMIN) guideline,the methodological and measure-ment properties quality of the included assessment tools were evaluated by the COSMIN risk of bias checklist and quality criteria,and the modified grading of recommendations assessment, development of evaluation(GRADE) was used to classify the grade of evidence and recommendations of the tools. Results None of the 10 assessment tools reported criterion validity, measurement error or responsiveness. The GRADE of Family Resilience Assessment(FRA) and Family Resilience Questionnaire(FaREQ) were high.
