The purpose of this article is to test the requirement of "local independence" in the newly developed "Maternal Health Literacy" (MaHeLi) composite scale measuring health literacy in pregnant adolescents attending antenatal care.
The 20-item scale was administered to 384 adolescents aged 15-19 years attending antenatal care in Uganda during the period July-December 2013. Rasch analysis was conducted using RUMM2030.
Differential item functioning was observed for 3 items. One item had disordered response categories. One subscale brought substantial multidimensionality into the MaHeLi scale.
Results support the use of a 12-item version of the MaHeLi scale. The article shows how Rasch analyses help us to identify violations of local independence in scales.
本文旨在检验新开发的“孕产妇健康素养”(MaHeLi)综合量表中“局部独立性”的要求,该量表用于测量接受产前护理的青少年孕妇的健康素养。
2013年7月至12月期间,对乌干达384名年龄在15 - 19岁、接受产前护理的青少年进行了20个条目的量表测试。使用RUMM2030进行拉施分析。
观察到3个条目的项目功能差异。一个条目具有无序的反应类别。一个子量表给MaHeLi量表带来了实质性的多维性。
结果支持使用12个条目的MaHeLi量表版本。本文展示了拉施分析如何帮助我们识别量表中局部独立性的违反情况。
