To construct a short prostate cancer radiation late toxicity (PCRT) questionnaire with health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) domains.
The PCRT was developed by item generation, questionnaire construction (n = 7 experts, n = 8 focus group patients), pilot testing (n = 37), item reduction (n = 100), reliability testing (n = 237), and validity testing (n = 274).
Reliability of the three item-reduced subscales demonstrated intraclass correlation coefficients (CC) of 0.811 (GU), 0.842 (GI), and 0.740 (sexual). Discriminant validity demonstrated Pearson CC of 0.449 (GU-GI), 0.200 (sexual-GU), and 0.09 (sexual-GI). Content validity correlations between PCRT-PCQoL were 0.35-0.78, PCRT-FACT-G(c) were 0.19-0.39, and PCRT-SF-36(R) were 0.03-0.34.
We successfully generated a PCRT HRQoL questionnaire including subscales with very good psychometric properties.
构建一份包含健康相关生活质量(HRQoL)领域的简短前列腺癌放疗晚期毒性(PCRT)问卷。
PCRT通过条目生成、问卷构建(7名专家,8组焦点组患者)、预试验(37例)、条目删减(100例)、信度测试(237例)和效度测试(274例)来制定。
三个删减条目后的子量表的信度显示组内相关系数(CC)分别为:泌尿生殖系统(GU)0.811、胃肠道(GI)0.842、性功能0.740。判别效度显示Pearson相关系数分别为:GU与GI为0.449、性功能与GU为0.200、性功能与GI为0.09。PCRT与前列腺癌生活质量量表(PCQoL)的内容效度相关性为0.35 - 0.78,PCRT与癌症治疗功能评价量表通用版(FACT - G(c))为0.19 - 0.39,PCRT与简短健康调查量表(SF - 36(R))为0.03 - 0.34。
我们成功生成了一份PCRT HRQoL问卷,其包含的子量表具有非常好的心理测量学特性。
