To adapt and validate in Spanish of Mexico scales to measure self-efficacy (SES) and empowerment for self-care (ES) among climacteric women.
The study was conducted from February to July 2011 in two family medicine clinics in Mexico City. The adaptation phase was done through testing for language comprehension. To validate the scales we used the principal Axis factoring analysis with oblique rotation technique and estimation of Cronbach's alpha (CA).
Three hundred eighty women aged 45-59 years participated in the study. SES had 16 items with four factors: participation in the doctor-patient relationship; in the study control of mental health and sexual changes; risk of dying from cancer, and other health risks that explained 39.8% of the variability, CA = 0.84. ES had eight items with one factor explaining 47.1% variability; CA = 0.83.
Both scales had acceptable psychometric properties and are suitable for interventions aimed at improving self-care of climacteric women.
对墨西哥的量表进行改编并在西班牙语环境下验证，以测量更年期女性的自我效能感（SES）和自我护理赋权（ES）。
该研究于2011年2月至7月在墨西哥城的两家家庭医学诊所进行。改编阶段通过语言理解测试完成。为验证量表，我们使用了主成分因子分析及斜交旋转技术，并估计了克朗巴赫α系数（CA）。
380名年龄在45 - 59岁的女性参与了该研究。SES有16个项目，包含四个因子：参与医患关系；研究中对心理健康和性变化的控制；死于癌症的风险以及其他健康风险，这些因子解释了39.8%的变异性，CA = 0.84。ES有8个项目，一个因子解释了47.1%的变异性；CA = 0.83。
这两个量表都具有可接受的心理测量学特性，适用于旨在改善更年期女性自我护理的干预措施。
