The purpose of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Persian version of Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction. A multisite, cross-sectional survey was employed to determine the instrument's reliability (Cronbach's α and construct reliability) and validity (face, content, and construct). Using systematic sampling of adult outpatients at primary care clinic sites in the Qazvin City, Iran (N = 300), it was found that the Cronbach's alpha and construct reliability of both factors associated with the SWBS were above 0.7. The construct validity of the scale was determined using exploratory factor analysis. The findings supported two factors: relation with God and relation with life. Further investigation through confirmatory factor analysis (eigenvalues of greater than one) confirmed a third factor construct associated with the SWBS. A total of 50.65 % of the variance were explained by these three factors. The overall findings of the study demonstrated that the SWBS is a valid and reliable instrument that has potential utility in future research and clinical practice settings.
本研究旨在评估波斯语版精神健康量表(SWBS)在急性心肌梗死患者中的心理测量特性。采用多地点横断面调查来确定该量表的信度(克朗巴哈系数α和结构信度)和效度(表面效度、内容效度和结构效度)。通过对伊朗加兹温市基层医疗诊所成年门诊患者进行系统抽样(N = 300),发现与SWBS相关的两个因素的克朗巴哈系数α和结构信度均高于0.7。采用探索性因子分析来确定该量表的结构效度。研究结果支持两个因子:与上帝的关系和与生活的关系。通过验证性因子分析(特征值大于1)进一步研究证实了与SWBS相关的第三个因子结构。这三个因子解释了总共50.65%的方差。该研究的总体结果表明,SWBS是一种有效且可靠的量表,在未来的研究和临床实践中具有潜在用途。
