Abstract

BACKGROUND

There is a great need for a valid hearing loss measurement tool in the Persian language to help identify hearing handicaps and potential communicational difficulties among Persian-speaking older adults. The present study aimed to validate and adapt the original English version of the Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly (HHIE) into the Persian language.

METHODS

A tool development study was designed and data were collected from August to November 2019 in Tabriz, Iran among the older adults aged 60 years and above whose hearing loss had been confirmed by audiometry. The construct validity was assessed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The reliability of the tool was calculated by internal consistency and test-retest reliability. The statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 (SPSS and STATA 14).

RESULTS

The CFA was conducted to examine the construct validity of the HHIE-S. According to the results, the model fit indices were acceptable (TLI = 0.93, CFI = 0.97, RMSEA = 0.07 (90% CI: 0.04 to 0.10), and SRMR = 0.03). Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.85) and the test-retest reliability score (0.73) indicated good internal consistency.

CONCLUSION

The results showed that HHIE-S is a valid and reliable tool for assessing hearing handicaps among Persian-speaking and Iranian older adults.

摘要

背景

在波斯语中，需要有一种有效的听力损失测量工具来帮助识别说波斯语的老年人的听力障碍和潜在的交流困难。本研究旨在将原始英文版的老年人听力障碍量表（HHIE）翻译成波斯语，并对其进行验证和改编。

方法

本研究为工具开发研究，于 2019 年 8 月至 11 月在伊朗大不里士的老年人中进行，年龄在 60 岁及以上，且听力损失已通过听力测试确认。使用验证性因子分析（CFA）评估结构效度。通过内部一致性和重测信度来计算工具的可靠性。统计分析使用 SPSS 26.0（SPSS 和 STATA 14）进行。

结果

对 HHIE-S 的结构效度进行了 CFA 检验。结果表明，模型拟合指数可接受（TLI=0.93，CFI=0.97，RMSEA=0.07（90%CI：0.04 至 0.10），SRMR=0.03）。Cronbach's alpha 系数（0.85）和重测信度评分（0.73）表明具有良好的内部一致性。
