The Patient Evaluation of Emotional Comfort Experienced (PEECE) is a 12-item questionnaire which measures the mental well-being state of emotional comfort in patients. The instrument was developed using previous qualitative work and published literature.
Instrument development.
Acute Care Public Hospital, Western Australia.
Sample of 374 patients.
A multidisciplinary expert panel assessed the face and content validity of the instrument and following a pilot study, the psychometric properties of the instrument were explored.
Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis assessed the underlying dimensions of the PEECE instrument; Cronbach's α was used to determine the reliability; κ was used for test-retest reliability of the ordinal items.
2 factors were identified in the instrument and named 'positive emotions' and 'perceived meaning'. A greater proportion of male patients were found to report positive emotions compared with female patients. The instrument was found to be feasible, reliable and valid for use with inpatients and outpatients.
PEECE was found to be a feasible instrument for use with inpatient and outpatients, being easily understood and completed. Further psychometric testing is recommended.
患者情感舒适体验评估(PEECE)是一份包含12个条目的问卷,用于测量患者情感舒适方面的心理健康状况。该工具是基于之前的定性研究和已发表文献开发的。
工具开发。
西澳大利亚州的急性护理公立医院。
374名患者的样本。
一个多学科专家小组评估了该工具的表面效度和内容效度,在一项预试验研究之后,探究了该工具的心理测量特性。
探索性和验证性因素分析评估了PEECE工具的潜在维度;使用克朗巴哈α系数来确定信度;κ系数用于有序条目的重测信度。
该工具中识别出2个因素,分别命名为“积极情绪”和“感知意义”。发现报告积极情绪的男性患者比例高于女性患者。该工具被发现对于住院患者和门诊患者而言是可行、可靠且有效的。
发现PEECE是一种适用于住院患者和门诊患者的可行工具,易于理解和填写。建议进一步进行心理测量测试。
