The aim of this study was to develop and initially assess the psychometric properties of the Caregiver Caregiving Self-Efficacy Scale-Oral Cancer (CSES-OC).
In total, 28 items in the Caregiver Caregiving Self-Efficacy Scale-Oral Cancer were originally employed for a reliability and validity test based on expert suggestions and qualitative findings. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient and test-retest reliability were evaluated with the pilot sample, which included 30 caregivers. The main test, which included 107 caregivers during May 2016 to 2018, was used to execute the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and concurrent validity.
The results of the main test showed a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of .95 for the revised 18-item total scale after EFA. Four factors (acquiring resources, managing sudden and uncertain patient conditions, managing patient-related nutritional issues and exploring and making decisions on patient care) were classified from EFA of the Caregiver Caregiving Self-Efficacy Scale-Oral Cancer. The r coefficient was .59 (P < .01), which supported the concurrent validity between CSES-OC and General Self-Efficacy Scale.
The study results show appropriate psychometric properties for the Caregiver Caregiving Self-Efficacy Scale-Oral Cancer that was constructed for evaluating caregiver caregiving self-efficacy in caring for family members with oral cancer.
本研究旨在开发并初步评估口腔癌照顾者自我效能感量表(CSES-OC)的心理测量学特性。
根据专家建议和定性研究结果,最初采用 28 项口腔癌照顾者自我效能感量表中的条目进行信度和效度测试。采用包含 30 名照顾者的预试验样本评估克朗巴赫 α 系数和重测信度。包含 2016 年 5 月至 2018 年期间 107 名照顾者的主要测试用于执行探索性因子分析(EFA)和同时效度。
主要测试的结果显示,EFA 后修订的 18 项总量表的克朗巴赫 α 系数为.95。从口腔癌照顾者自我效能感量表的 EFA 中分出 4 个因子(获取资源、管理突发和不确定的患者状况、管理与患者相关的营养问题以及探索和决策患者护理)。CSES-OC 与一般自我效能感量表的 r 系数为.59(P<.01),支持同时效度。
研究结果表明,该量表具有适当的心理测量学特性,可用于评估照顾口腔癌家庭成员的照顾者的自我效能感。
