Postpartum Sexual Quality of Life: Scale Development and Psychometric Properties Assessment in Iran

Abstract Background: To develop and assess the psychometric properties of the Postpartum Sexual Quality of Life Scale (PSQLS) in Iran.Methods: We employed a mixed-method approach. In the qualitative phase (17 interviews and two focus groups), we generated items for the scale. In the quantitative phase (n = 282), we assessed the psychometric properties of the pre-final version.Results: The final version contained 22 items. Exploratory factor analysis indicated a 5-factor solution that jointly accounted for 59.6 % of the variance. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.87.Conclusion: The PSQLS showed good validity and reliability and could be used to evaluate women’s postpartum sexual life.
