This short report describes the systematic development and validation of the EBS (Experiences of Breast Screening) measure to assess women's experience of the breast screening process. For the NHS Breast Screening Programme to be successful attendance must be high and remain high at subsequent rounds. The aim of the EBS is to identify areas of the screening process that can be improved to achieve greater adherence to subsequent screening rounds. The EBS was developed using the available evidence, expertise of health professionals, pilot interviews and a pilot postal survey. The validity, reliability and acceptability were demonstrated from the results of a multi-centre postal survey, resulting in a final 21-item measure.
本简短报告描述了用于评估女性乳腺筛查过程体验的EBS（乳腺筛查体验）量表的系统开发与验证。对于英国国家医疗服务体系（NHS）的乳腺筛查项目而言，要取得成功，首轮筛查的参与率必须很高，且在后续轮次中保持较高水平。EBS的目的是识别筛查过程中可以改进的方面，以提高对后续筛查轮次的依从性。EBS是利用现有证据、卫生专业人员的专业知识、试点访谈和试点邮政调查开发的。多中心邮政调查的结果证明了该量表的有效性、可靠性和可接受性，最终形成了一个包含21个条目的量表。
