Work-related quality of life (WRQoL) is a multidimensional concept related to life satisfaction. Evaluating WRQoL is essential in healthcare settings since employee satisfaction affects patient service quality. Only a few studies have focused on the quality of life of rehabilitation health workers. We aimed to validate the Italian version of the WRQoL scale on a population of rehabilitation health professionals; the secondary objective was to investigate the work-related quality of life of professionals concerning the work settings in which they operate.
Participants were recruited from January 2022 to December 2023 according to specific inclusion criteria. Questionnaires were administered through an online survey requiring also personal employment data, and together with the SF-12 questionnaire, a test-retest was performed on 30 therapists. Reliability was assessed with Cronbach's alpha, test-retest stability through intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and concurrent validity was calculated using Pearson's correlation.
We enrolled 284 individuals. Internal consistency analysis showed statistically significant results: Cronbach's alpha was > 0.70; construct validity analyses revealed statistically significant data for total scores and subscales, compared to SF-12 scores.
The WRQoL scale is a valid and reliable tool to assess the quality of working life of rehabilitation professionals.
工作相关生活质量(WRQoL)是一个与生活满意度相关的多维概念。在医疗保健环境中评估 WRQoL 至关重要,因为员工满意度会影响患者服务质量。只有少数研究关注康复卫生工作者的生活质量。我们旨在验证康复卫生专业人员人群的 WRQoL 量表的意大利版本;次要目标是调查专业人员的工作相关生活质量,涉及他们工作的环境。
根据特定的纳入标准,参与者于 2022 年 1 月至 2023 年 12 月期间招募。通过在线调查进行问卷调查,还要求提供个人就业数据,并与 SF-12 问卷一起,对 30 名治疗师进行了测试-重测。使用 Cronbach 的 alpha 评估信度,使用组内相关系数(ICC)评估测试-重测稳定性,使用 Pearson 相关系数评估同时效度。
我们招募了 284 人。内部一致性分析显示具有统计学意义的结果:Cronbach 的 alpha 大于 0.70;结构有效性分析显示总分和子量表与 SF-12 分数相比具有统计学意义的数据。
WRQoL 量表是评估康复专业人员工作生活质量的有效且可靠的工具。
