Self-management programs require a range of indicators to evaluate their outcomes. The Health Education Impact Questionnaire (heiQ) was developed to meet this need. The heiQ contains 40 items with 4 response categories, representing eight scales. We developed a Swedish version of the heiQ that was tested by cognitive interviews (n = 15) and psychometrically (n = 177) using classical test theory (CTT) and Rasch measurement theory (RMT). The Swedish heiQ was easily understood by interviewees and met CTT criteria, with supported scaling assumptions (corrected item-total correlations, 0.37) and reliability (ordinal alpha 0.78). General support was demonstrated for the measurement properties of the eight heiQ scales by acceptable RMT fit. However, there were signs of malfunctioning response categories for four items in two scales, and of suboptimal item coverage of the measurement continua. The Swedish heiQ appears comparable to other available language versions. Further efforts may be needed to optimize response categories and measurement precision.
自我管理项目需要一系列指标来评估其成果。为满足这一需求，开发了《健康教育影响问卷》（heiQ）。heiQ包含40个项目，有4种回答类别，代表8个量表。我们开发了heiQ的瑞典语版本，并通过认知访谈（n = 15）以及使用经典测试理论（CTT）和拉施测量理论（RMT）进行心理测量（n = 177）对其进行了测试。瑞典语heiQ易于被受访者理解，符合CTT标准，具有支持性的量表假设（校正后的项目总分相关性为0.37）和信度（顺序α系数为0.78）。通过可接受的RMT拟合，八个heiQ量表的测量属性得到了总体支持。然而，两个量表中有四个项目存在回答类别故障的迹象，且测量连续统的项目覆盖范围也不理想。瑞典语heiQ似乎与其他可用的语言版本相当。可能需要进一步努力来优化回答类别和测量精度。
