The aim of this study was to evaluate the cultural adaptability and psychometric properties of the Vietnamese version of the Breast Cancer Screening Beliefs Questionnaire (BCSBQ).
A total of 253 women aged 18 years and older with no history of breast cancer was included in the analysis.
Confirmatory factor analysis showed an adequate fit for the hypothesized three-factor structure of the original version of the BCSBQ. The results indicated that the frequency of women's breast cancer screening practices and their educational levels were significantly associated with "Attitudes towards general check-ups". Demonstrating the Cronbach's α of the three subscales ranged between 0.79 and 0.85 while the corrected item-total correlations for the hypothesized subscales ranged from 0.38 to 0.74, constituted a result which indicated that the Vietnamese version of the BCSBQ had satisfactory validity and internal consistency.
The Vietnamese version of the BCSBQ is a culturally appropriate, valid, and reliable instrument for examining the beliefs, knowledge, and attitudes about breast cancer and breast cancer screening practices among Vietnamese women living in Australia.
本研究旨在评估越南语版乳腺癌筛查信念问卷(BCSBQ)的文化适应性和心理测量特性。
共有253名18岁及以上且无乳腺癌病史的女性纳入分析。
验证性因素分析表明,原版本BCSBQ假设的三因素结构拟合良好。结果表明,女性乳腺癌筛查实践的频率及其教育水平与“对常规体检的态度”显著相关。三个分量表的克朗巴哈α系数在0.79至0.85之间,而假设分量表的校正项总计相关性在0.38至0.74之间,这一结果表明越南语版BCSBQ具有令人满意的效度和内部一致性。
越南语版BCSBQ是一种在文化上合适、有效且可靠的工具,可用于检验居住在澳大利亚的越南女性对乳腺癌及乳腺癌筛查实践的信念、知识和态度。
