The development of the Treatment Satisfaction Scale (TSS) was previously reported (Kubin et al., 2004).
This article describes the psychometric validation process and psychometric properties (e.g., reliability, validity, and responsiveness) of TSS.
Initial patient and partner questionnaires were administered in a multi-national clinical trial. On the basis of exploratory analyses, iterative psychometric testing, and consideration of face validity and interpretability, the number of items was reduced, and six scales were constructed: "Satisfaction with Medication," "Ease with Erection," "Satisfaction with Erectile Function," "Pleasure from Sexual Activity," "Satisfaction with Orgasm," and either "Sexual Confidence" (for patients) or "Confidence in Completion" (for partners).
Multi-item scales had good internal consistency reliability and concurrent validity with the IIEF. All patient scales and most partner scales were valid in relation to clinical criteria, and all tested scales were responsive to change over time.
The TSS is brief, culturally valid, and the most comprehensive multidimensional measure of satisfaction with ED treatment for patients and their partners, and addresses some of the shortcomings of existing measures.
先前已报道了治疗满意度量表（TSS）的开发情况（库宾等人，2004年）。
本文描述了TSS的心理测量学验证过程及心理测量学特性（如信度、效度和反应性）。
在一项多国临床试验中对初始患者和伴侣问卷进行了施测。基于探索性分析、反复的心理测量学测试以及对表面效度和可解释性的考量，减少了条目数量，并构建了六个量表：“药物满意度”“勃起轻松度”“勃起功能满意度”“性活动愉悦感”“性高潮满意度”，以及针对患者的“性自信”或针对伴侣的“完成自信”。
多条目量表具有良好的内部一致性信度，与国际勃起功能指数（IIEF）具有同时效度。所有患者量表和大多数伴侣量表在临床标准方面均有效，且所有测试量表均对随时间的变化有反应。
TSS简短、具有文化效度，是针对患者及其伴侣对勃起功能障碍治疗满意度的最全面的多维测量工具，弥补了现有测量工具的一些不足。
