The Drug Attitude Inventory 9 (DAI-9) is a nine-item self-rated questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed positive and negative attitudes of patients toward taking medication, presence of medication side effects and perceived autonomy in treatment decision. Aim This study aimed to validate the psychometric properties of the Malay translation of Drug Attitude Inventory 9 (MDAI-9).
DAI-9 was translated from English to Malay via forward and backward translation process to produce MDAI-9. MDAI-9 was then validated on patients with psychosis who were attending psychiatry out-patient clinics. Results There were 54 participants in this study. The subscale (attitude towards psychotropic medications) has a Cronbach's α of 0.93, whereas the subscale that assesses the presence of side effect problems has a Cronbach's α of 0.86 Exploratory factor analysis supported a two-factor model. Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin's measure of sampling adequacy was 0.64 and Bartlett's test of sphericity was significant (X = 281.8, <0.001).
In conclusion, MDAI-9 is reliable and valid.
药物态度量表9（DAI - 9）是一份包含九个条目的自评问卷。该问卷评估了患者对服药的积极和消极态度、药物副作用的存在情况以及在治疗决策中感知到的自主性。目的 本研究旨在验证药物态度量表9的马来语翻译版本（MDAI - 9）的心理测量学特性。
通过正向和反向翻译过程将DAI - 9从英语翻译成马来语，以生成MDAI - 9。然后在精神科门诊就诊的精神病患者中对MDAI - 9进行验证。结果 本研究有54名参与者。分量表（对精神药物的态度）的克朗巴哈α系数为0.93，而评估副作用问题存在情况的分量表的克朗巴哈α系数为0.86。探索性因素分析支持双因素模型。Kaiser - Meyer - Olkin抽样适当性度量为0.64，Bartlett球形检验具有显著性（X = 281.8，P <0.001）。
总之，MDAI - 9是可靠且有效的。
