It was aimed to adapt a 12-item questionnaire into Persian among people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLHIV) in Markazi province. Content validity was evaluated based on the opinions of the relevant experts, and by calculating the scale-level content validity index (S-CVI) and the item-level content validity index (I-CVI). Reliability was assessed via test-retest, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and Cronbach's alpha. The obtained scores on clarity and relevancy (I-CVI) ranged from 0.9 to 1. The S-CVI also had an acceptable validity of 0.99. The Cronbach's alpha index of the whole questionnaire was 0.84 and ranged from 0.69 to 0.82 for subscales. The ICC in test-retest for all questionnaires was 0.88 and for subscales ranged from 0.77 to 0.88. The Persian version of the 12-item human immunodeficiency virus-related stigma questionnaire was found to be, in addition to being short and comprehensive, acceptable reliability and high validity to use in order to determine the stigma related to Persian-speaker PLHIV.
本研究旨在将一份 12 项的问卷改编为波斯语,以评估其在马赞德兰省艾滋病毒感染者(PLHIV)中的适用性。内容效度通过相关专家的意见,以及计算量表水平内容效度指数(S-CVI)和项目水平内容效度指数(I-CVI)进行评估。通过重测信度、组内相关系数(ICC)和克朗巴赫 α 评估可靠性。清晰度和相关性(I-CVI)的得分范围为 0.9 至 1。S-CVI 的有效性也可接受,为 0.99。整个问卷的克朗巴赫 α 指数为 0.84,分量表的范围为 0.69 至 0.82。所有问卷的重测 ICC 为 0.88,分量表的范围为 0.77 至 0.88。波斯语版的 12 项艾滋病毒相关耻辱感问卷除了简短全面外,还具有可接受的可靠性和较高的有效性,可用于确定讲波斯语的 PLHIV 相关的耻辱感。
