Chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), sometimes referred to as lifestyle diseases, are the most common cause of death and disability worldwide. Thus, healthcare professionals should be equipped with tools, knowledge, skills, and competencies in the newly distinguished field of lifestyle medicine. The purpose of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the Polish version of the Healthy Lifestyle and Personal Control Questionnaire (HLPCQ). The Polish version of the HLPCQ would further provide Polish healthcare professionals with a useful and convenient tool for routine lifestyle assessment while giving HLPCQ novel use and potential for further research.
Before testing its psychometric properties, the HLPCQ was translated and adapted from the original Greek version into Polish. Subsequently, we tested the instrument's psychometric properties on a sample of 2433 participants. In addition, we tested the factorial validity of the HLPCQ using confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis.
There were more female than male participants (91.78%). Most of them were middle-aged (30.40 ± 7.71), single (39.62%), and living with family (70.65%). In terms of residence, 1122 (46.12%) participants lived in cities with a population of over 500,000. In terms of reliability, the internal consistency of the Polish version and its domains is excellent. Cronbach's alpha for each of the domains of the scale ranged between 0.6 and 0.9.
The Polish version of the Healthy Lifestyle and Personal Control Questionnaire (HLPCQ) has good characteristics of factorial validity and can be used in clinical practice and research.
慢性非传染性疾病（NCDs），有时也被称为生活方式病，是全球范围内最常见的死亡和残疾原因。因此，医疗保健专业人员应该具备在新出现的生活方式医学领域中使用的工具、知识、技能和能力。本研究的目的是测试健康生活方式和个人控制问卷（HLPCQ）波兰语版本的心理测量学特性。波兰语版本的 HLPCQ 将为波兰医疗保健专业人员提供一种有用且方便的常规生活方式评估工具，同时为 HLPCQ 提供新的用途和进一步研究的潜力。
在测试其心理测量学特性之前，HLPCQ 从原始希腊语版本翻译成了波兰语。随后，我们在 2433 名参与者的样本中测试了该工具的心理测量学特性。此外，我们使用验证性和探索性因素分析来测试 HLPCQ 的因子有效性。
参与者中女性多于男性（91.78%）。他们大多处于中年（30.40±7.71 岁），单身（39.62%），与家人一起生活（70.65%）。就居住地点而言，1122 名（46.12%）参与者居住在人口超过 50 万的城市。就可靠性而言，波兰语版本及其各个领域的内部一致性非常好。该量表各领域的克朗巴赫 α 值在 0.6 到 0.9 之间。
健康生活方式和个人控制问卷（HLPCQ）的波兰语版本具有良好的因子有效性特征，可在临床实践和研究中使用。
