The present study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Spanish versions of the Perceived Religious Influence on Health Behavior scale and the Illness as Punishment for Sin scale in a sample of churchgoing Latina women (= 404). For the Perceived Religious Influence on Health Behavior scale, confirmatory factor analysis provided support for the expected one- factor model, internal consistency reliability was good, and there was evidence of convergent validity. For the Illness as Punishment for Sin scale, confirmatory factor analysis provided support for the expected one-factor model, but on a revised, seven-item version of the measure. Internal consistency reliability and convergent validity for this revised version were good. It is recommended that future studies use the Perceived Religious Influence on Health Behavior scale and the revised Illness as Punishment for Sin scale when examining these constructs among Latina women.
本研究在404名常去教堂的拉丁裔女性样本中,评估了“宗教对健康行为的感知影响量表”和“疾病即罪恶惩罚量表”西班牙语版本的心理测量特性。对于“宗教对健康行为的感知影响量表”,验证性因素分析支持了预期的单因素模型,内部一致性信度良好,并有收敛效度的证据。对于“疾病即罪恶惩罚量表”,验证性因素分析支持了预期的单因素模型,但该模型基于该量表修订后的七项版本。此修订版本的内部一致性信度和收敛效度良好。建议未来研究在对拉丁裔女性进行这些构念研究时,使用“宗教对健康行为的感知影响量表”和修订后的“疾病即罪恶惩罚量表”。
