Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II (HPLP-II), developed in the West, evaluates 52 health promoting behaviors (HPB) under six subscales. In this study we evaluated the applicability of HPLP-II to assess the HPB of postmenopausal women (PMW) conversant in the Sinhala language in Sri Lanka.
The Sinhala version of HPLP-II was adapted following standard methodology of cross cultural adaptation. It included forward and backward translations, review by an expert group, focus group discussion and pre-testing. It was self-administered among randomly selected healthy, Sinhalese, community-dwelling PMW (n = 245, aged 55.9 ± 3.4 years), along with the Short Form 36 (SF-36) survey. The Sinhala version of HPLP-II was re-administered among a subsample (n = 105) after two weeks of first administration. Psychometric properties - reliability and validity, were evaluated.
In the Sinhala version of HPLP-II, both internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.98) and test-retest reliability (intra class correlation / ICC = 0.98, 95%CI = 0.97-0.99) were high. Structural validity assessment with Factor analysis using Principal Component Analysis extracted seven factors explaining 80.65% cumulative variance with few exceptions from the original version. Health responsibility (HR) and spiritual growth (SG) subscales of HPLP-II and physical and psychological health dimensions scores of SF-36 scores correlated significantly (r > 0.63, p < 0.001) ensuring strong concurrent validity.
The Sinhala version of HPLP-II adapted by us is a tool with high reliability and validity.
健康促进生活方式量表-Ⅱ(HPLP-Ⅱ)由西方开发,评估六个分量表下的 52 种健康促进行为(HPB)。本研究评估 HPLP-Ⅱ用于评估讲僧伽罗语的斯里兰卡绝经后妇女(PMW)的 HPB 的适用性。
采用跨文化适应的标准方法对 HPLP-Ⅱ的僧伽罗语版本进行改编。它包括正向和反向翻译、专家组审查、焦点小组讨论和预测试。它由随机选择的健康、僧伽罗语、社区居住的 PMW(n=245,年龄 55.9±3.4 岁)自行填写,同时还填写了简短形式 36 项健康调查(SF-36)。在第一次填写后的两周内,对一个亚样本(n=105)重新填写了 HPLP-Ⅱ的僧伽罗语版本。评估了心理测量学特性-可靠性和有效性。
在 HPLP-Ⅱ的僧伽罗语版本中,内部一致性(Cronbach's alpha=0.98)和重测信度(组内相关系数/ICC=0.98,95%CI=0.97-0.99)均较高。结构有效性评估使用主成分分析的因子分析提取了七个因子,解释了 80.65%的累积方差,与原始版本相比有一些例外。HPLP-Ⅱ的健康责任(HR)和精神成长(SG)分量表与 SF-36 得分的身体和心理健康维度得分显著相关(r>0.63,p<0.001),确保了较强的同时效度。
我们改编的 HPLP-Ⅱ的僧伽罗语版本是一种具有高可靠性和有效性的工具。
