The aim of this study was to psychometrically validate the EORTC translated, Polish version of the EORTC QLQ-H&N35 questionnaire to support using it in the Polish clinical setting in patients with head and neck malignancies.
Patients with histologically confirmed head and neck malignancies were included in the study. All patients filled in the Polish version of the EORTC QLQ-C30, the EORTC QLQ-H&N35 module, and a demographic questionnaire. Standardized validity and reliability analyses were performed.
During the recruitment period a total of 176 patients (82 females - 46.6%) were enrolled into the study, with a mean age of 54.3 ± 11.2 years. Cronbach alpha values ranged from 0.71 to 0.87. Satisfactory convergent and discriminant validity in multi-trait scaling analyses was seen.
The Polish version of the EORTC QLQ-H&N35 module is a reliable and valid tool for measuring HRQoL in Polish patients with head and neck malignancies. It can be fully recommended for use in the Polish clinical setting.
本研究旨在对欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织(EORTC)翻译的波兰语版EORTC QLQ-H&N35问卷进行心理测量学验证,以支持其在波兰头颈恶性肿瘤患者临床环境中的应用。
组织学确诊的头颈恶性肿瘤患者纳入本研究。所有患者填写波兰语版EORTC QLQ-C30、EORTC QLQ-H&N35模块和一份人口统计学调查问卷。进行标准化的效度和信度分析。
在招募期间,共有176例患者(82例女性,占46.6%)纳入研究,平均年龄为54.3±11.2岁。克朗巴哈α值范围为0.71至0.87。在多特质量表分析中观察到了令人满意的收敛效度和区分效度。
波兰语版EORTC QLQ-H&N35模块是测量波兰头颈恶性肿瘤患者健康相关生活质量的可靠且有效的工具。完全推荐在波兰临床环境中使用。
