Aim of the study was to assess validity and reliability of adaptations of VQLQ for Polish children with Hymenoptera venom allergy and their parents. Sample under study consisted of 73 children aged up to 14 years, who were treated with specific venom immunotherapy (VIT) in 2008 in centres conducting this procedure in Poland, and their parents. Theoretical validity of the scales was assessed with exploratory factor analysis using principal component analysis method. Reliability of the scales was assessed in terms of internal consistency with Cronbach alpha coefficient. Results of analysis showed that both scales measure 4 dimension of quality of life and reliability of scales measuring particular dimensions is at least acceptable in case of scale for children, and high in case of scale for parents. Both adapted scales are valid and reliable tools measuring quality of life in children with Hymenoptera venom allergy and their parents' quality of life in the face of child's allergy.
本研究的目的是评估针对波兰患有膜翅目毒液过敏的儿童及其父母所改编的VQLQ的有效性和可靠性。研究样本包括73名14岁以下的儿童，他们于2008年在波兰开展该程序的中心接受了特异性毒液免疫疗法（VIT）治疗，以及他们的父母。使用主成分分析方法通过探索性因素分析评估量表的理论有效性。根据Cronbach α系数从内部一致性方面评估量表的可靠性。分析结果表明，两个量表均测量生活质量的4个维度，并且在儿童量表的情况下，测量特定维度的量表可靠性至少是可接受的，而在父母量表的情况下则很高。两个改编后的量表都是测量膜翅目毒液过敏儿童生活质量及其父母面对孩子过敏时生活质量的有效且可靠的工具。
