Measuring Tool

This research aimed to develop a Kualitas hidup measurement tool in Indonesia. The research method used in this study is a combined method of qualitative and quantitative research (mixed method). The qualitative stage aimed at exploring the theme of kualitas hidup totaling 250 people. Meanwhile, participants in the quantitative stage aimed at identifying psychometric properties (validity and reliability) numbered 759 people. The data analysis technique used for qualitative data is open coding. Quantitative data consists of construct validity test using factorial validity with exploratory factor analysis (EFA), convergent validity, and known-group validity, and estimation of internal consistency reliability using Cronbach's Alpha. The EFA results show that the Kualitas hidup Indonesia measuring instrument consists of 9 factors and 30 items with a very high reliability coefficient (α = 0.88). Convergent validity in this study was carried out by correlating the Kualitas hidup Indonesia measuring tool with the WHOQOL-BREF measurement tool. Validity by known-group is done by comparing demographic data of age, sex, marital status, education level, employment status, and health conditions using One-Way ANOVA

Objective: According to the family systems theory, triangulation is defined as reflecting and conveying the tension between two individuals to a third individual to reduce the existing tension, stress, and anxiety. This study was conducted to adapt the “Triangular Relationship Inventory” to Turkish and to assess psychometric properties. Method: The sample of the study included 337 individuals (234 women and 103 men) aged between 18 and 25 years. The structure validity of the inventory was evaluated with the confirmatory factor analysis and reliability was evaluated with Chronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient, test–retest method, and item analyses. Results: The result showed that the Turkish form of the Triangular Relationship Inventory showed similar psychometric properties to the original inventory. The structure which consists of the balanced, mediator, cross-generational coalition, and scapegoat subdimensions of 24 items displayed acceptable goodness-of-fit values in the Turkish sample with the 0.91 Cronbach's alpha coefficient while the reliability values of the subdimensions changed between 0.86 and 0.91. Considering the convergent validity of the inventory, there was a negative correlation between the triangular relationship and satisfaction with life and the differentiation of self, and a significant positive correlation with depression, anxiety, and stress. Conclusion: The psychometric properties revealed in this study show that the Turkish form of the Triangular Relationship Inventory is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used to measure the triangulation levels and roles of the individuals, who are in the Turkish sample and between the ages of 18 and 25 years, within the family system.

Abstract Background Personal recovery is increasingly recognised as an important outcome measure in mental health services. This study aimed to develop a Japanese version of the Questionnaire about the Process of Recovery (QPR-J) and test its validity and reliability. Methods The study comprised two stages that employed the cross-sectional and prospective cohort designs, respectively. We translated the questionnaire using a standard translation/back-translation method. Convergent validity was examined by calculating Pearson’s correlation coefficients with scores on the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS) and the Short-Form-8 Health Survey (SF-8). An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to examine factorial validity. We used intraclass correlation and Cronbach’s alpha to examine the test-retest and internal consistency reliability of the QPR-J’s 22-item full scale, 17-item intrapersonal and 5-item interpersonal subscales. We conducted an EFA along with a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Results Data were obtained from 197 users of mental health services (mean age: 42.0 years; 61.9% female; 49.2% diagnosed with schizophrenia). The QPR-J showed adequate convergent validity, exhibiting significant, positive correlations with the RAS and SF-8 scores. The QPR-J’s full version, subscales, showed excellent test-retest and internal consistency reliability, with the exception of acceptable but relatively low internal consistency reliability for the interpersonal subscale. Based on the results of the CFA and EFA, we adopted the factor structure extracted from the original 2-factor model based on the present CFA. Conclusion The QPR-J is an adequately valid and reliable measure of the process of recovery among Japanese users with mental health services.

Background Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a widely accepted scientific advancement in clinical settings that helps achieve better, safer, and more cost-effective healthcare. However, presently, validated instruments to evaluate healthcare professionals’ attitude and practices toward implementing EBM are not widely available. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the validity and reliability of a newly developed knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) questionnaire on EBM for use among healthcare professionals. Methods The Noor Evidence-Based Medicine Questionnaire was tested among physicians in a government hospital between July and August 2018. Exploratory factor analysis and internal consistency reliability-based Cronbach’s alpha statistic were conducted. Results The questionnaire was distributed among 94 physicians, and 90 responded (response rate of 95.7%). The initial number of items in the KAP domains of the Noor Evidence-Based Medicine Questionnaire were 15, 17, and 13, respectively; however, two items in the practice domain with communalities <0.25 and factor loadings <0.4 were removed. The factor structure accounted for 52.33%, 66.29%, and 55.39% of data variance in the KAP domains, respectively. Cronbach’s alpha values were 0.81, 0.81, and 0.84 for KAP domains, respectively, indicating high reliability. Conclusions This questionnaire can be used to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour of healthcare professionals toward EBM. Future testing of this questionnaire among other medical personnel groups will help expand the scope of this tool.

This study has a background to determine the correlation between internet services and library access services at IAIN Kediri, so that the results can be used to facilitate librarians in arranging the priority needs of library service users, especially students. This research uses quantitative research method by collecting data through a questionnaire distributed to 300 students. The result of the questionnaire is then analyzed to gain the correlation value to find relationships between variables followed by looking for regression values to determine the influence of one variable on another. To determine the value of validity and reliability, the Pearson Correlation Product Moment formula and Alpha-Cronbach formula are used. Based on the results of the data analysis technique using simple linear regression, between the independent (internet services) and the dependent variable (services in the library) has a correlation value (R2) of 25.5% which means that there is a positive correlation (interrelated between one variable and one variable). other). Briefly, it can be concluded that internet services have a correlation with access to library services and an important role in supporting student learning activities. Accordingly, librarians are strongly expected to carry out management especially in terms of library service facilities and infrastructure at IAIN Kediri.

There is an increasing awareness of the need to promote behaviors consistent with the understanding that individuals with dementia deserve adequate respect. Person-centered attitudes on the part of a care facility’s staff can affect care practices and relationships with residents. This study examined the psychometric properties of the Korean version of the Personhood in Dementia Questionnaire (KPDQ), which measures staff’s person-centered attitudes toward individuals with dementia. The KPDQ was translated and adapted based on commonly used guidelines from the World Health Organization. For psychometric testing, the data obtained from a total of 269 participants in 13 long-term care facilities were analyzed. Factor analysis, item fit, convergent validity, and known-group validity were examined. Reliability and differential item functioning (DIF) based on Rasch analysis were also assessed. The KPDQ consists of 20 items with three subscales (“agency”, “respect for personhood” and “psychosocial engagement”). Item fit statistics indicated that each item fits well with the underlying construct. The KPDQ demonstrated satisfactory convergent validity, known-group validity and internal consistency reliability. There was no DIF by subgroup according to age or educational status. Results indicated that the KPDQ is a reliable and valid tool for measuring long-term care staff’s beliefs about personhood.

Objective: To estimate validity and reliability of WTP questionnaire which WTP value can be taken as an indication of the monetary value of health gains, which may carry information regarding the appropriate height of the cost-effectiveness threshold.Methods: Three hundred respondents, in Yogyakarta province, Indonesia, were interviewed during June 2017. We examine a value of WTP associated with the following scenarios: 1) improving moderate condition; 2) extending life during terminal illness, and 3) lifesaving. The interview ascertained maximum hypothetical WTP for one QALY using a dichotomous bidding format with an open-ended final question, along with questions about the socio-economic factors. Concerning validity, the WTP of the 3 versions of hypothetical scenarios were compared as known-group validity and analysis of the sensitivity and specificity was performed. Test-retest reliability and alpha Cronbach were employed to measure internal consistency.Results: Analysis generally confirmed the validity and reliability of the WTP hypothetical scenarios. In terms of known group validity, there was significant difference across two scenarios (treatment v. s lifesaving), but no significant difference between mean WTP for treatment and terminal illness was found. Mean WTP for terminal illness (38 Million IDR) and lifesaving scenario (16 Million IDR) was significantly higher than that of treatment scenario (14 Million IDR). The WTP instrument showed good convergent validity (r=0.784), when comparing correlation between WTP value and utility score. Estimation of scenario’s sensitivity and specificity in deriving expected WTP were 70.33 % and 38.98 %, respectively. The positive and negative predictive values were 64 % and 46 %. The test-retest reliability of WTP values indices excellent stability and reliability of the instrument with Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient of 0.816 (p<0.001)Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the WTP instrument is feasible and relatively reliable for measuring the WTP values in Indonesia. For wider application of the instrument, its validity should be investigated further. Meanwhile, adoption of WTP as an empirical evidence of societal values is encouraged.

Background: The urticaria control test (UCT) is a patient-reported outcome measure designed to determine the current level of disease control in patients with chronic urticaria (CU). Recently, a Brazilian UCT was developed, but its validity and reliability are unknown. Method: The clinimetric properties of the Brazilian UCT short form (UCTsh) and its long form (UCTlg) were determined in 130 patients with CU. In parallel, the urticaria activity scores (UAS) that covers 7 days (UAS7) and 28 days (UAS28) were used to assess disease activity. Subsequently, the results were analyzed statistically to determine the validity, reliability, and interpretability of the Brazilian UCT versions. Results: A total of 107 female (82%) and 23 male patients with CU completed both versions of the Brazilian UCT. Both of the Brazilian UCT versions showed excellent internal consistency reliability. In addition, the Brazilian UCT results showed strong correlations with UAS7 and UAS28 results, which indicated high levels of convergent validity. The test-retest reliability was examined in a subsample of 27 patients with CU and was found to be excellent. Notably, the results of both Brazilian UCT versions correlated extensively, which suggested that the UCTsh can replace the UCTlg without changing the UCT results. Conclusion: The Brazilian UCT is a valid and reliable tool for assessing disease control. To facilitate the use of the Brazilian UCT in global studies and to put a stronger focus on the specificity, we propose that the same cutoff values for well-controlled disease should be used as identified in the original publication of the UCT, i.e., ≥12 points for the UCTsh.
