To linguistically adapt and validate the Spanish version of the PEACH rating scale and identify the variables associated. A transversal study of parents/guardians of infants and children with either normal hearing or hearing impairment. The protocol included translation into Spanish and adapted linguistically. Regression models were constructed using logistic regression, obtaining the respective areas under the ROC curve. Validity was studied through an exploratory factor analyses and reliability analysis was carried out using Cronbach's Alpha. The PEACH rating scale was carried out on 297 parents. There was a high degree of reliability for both children with hearing impairment (Cronbach's Alpha: 0.93) and for those with normal hearing (Cronbach's Alpha: 0.82). The exploratory factor analysis showed the existence of one factor (unidimensional). In relation to the variables associated with the global scores of the scale, the type of hearing loss and laterality impact on the score. The area under the ROC curve was 0.89, showing elevated sensitivity and specificity. The adapted version can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of amplification for infants and children with hearing impairment in Spanish-speaking children. The PEACH rating scale to Spanish has validity indicators similar to the original.
为了对西班牙语版的 PEACH 评分量表进行语言适应性调整和验证,并确定相关变量。这是一项针对听力正常或有听力障碍的婴儿和儿童的父母/监护人的横断研究。该方案包括翻译和语言适应性调整。使用逻辑回归构建回归模型,获得相应的 ROC 曲线下面积。通过探索性因子分析研究有效性,并使用 Cronbach 的 Alpha 进行可靠性分析。PEACH 评分量表在 297 位家长中进行了评估。对于听力障碍儿童(Cronbach 的 Alpha:0.93)和听力正常儿童(Cronbach 的 Alpha:0.82),量表的可靠性都很高。探索性因子分析显示存在一个因素(单维)。与量表总分相关的变量包括听力损失类型和侧别对评分的影响。ROC 曲线下面积为 0.89,表明敏感性和特异性较高。西班牙语版的适应性版本可用于评估西班牙语儿童听力障碍的助听效果。PEACH 评分量表的西班牙语版本具有与原始版本相似的有效性指标。
