This study evaluated the psychometric properties of a self-report scale for assessing perceived driver competence, labeled the Self-Efficacy Scale for Driver Competence (SSDC), using item response theory analyses. Two samples of Swedish driving-license examinees (n = 795; n = 714) completed two versions of the SSDC that were parallel in content. Prior work, using classical test theory analyses, has provided support for the validity and reliability of scores from the SSDC. This study investigated the measurement precision, item hierarchy, and differential functioning for males and females of the items in the SSDC as well as how the rating scale functions. The results confirmed the previous findings; that the SSDC demonstrates sound psychometric properties. In addition, the findings showed that measurement precision could be increased by adding items that tap higher self-efficacy levels. Moreover, the rating scale can be improved by reducing the number of categories or by providing each category with a label.

Rationale and objectiveThe evaluation of patient self-efficacy for managing chronic diseases is important in self-management education programs. A valid instrument to evaluate self-efficacy exists: the Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-Item Scale (SEM-CD). The purpose of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of a French version of the instrument (SEM-CD Fv) in a primary health care context.MethodThe French translation of the questionnaire was obtained through a rigorous translation-back-translation process. Cronbach’s alpha, test-retest reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient, ICC), concurrent validity with the Skill and Technique Acquisition domain of the Health Education Impact Questionnaire (Heiq) and exploratory factor analysis were used to assess the psychometric properties of the SEM-CD Fv.ResultsWe analysed data from 326 primary care patients. The Cronbach alpha of the instrument was 0.93 (95% CI: 0.92 – 0.94). The ICC between the two administrations of the questionnaire (two-week interval) was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.69 – 0.90, p < 0.001). Concurrent validity of the SEM-CD Fv with the Skill and Technique Acquisition domain of the HeiQ showed a correlation coefficient of 0.49 (95% CI: 0.40 – 0.58, p < 0.001). Factor analysis for the SEM-CD Fv resulted in a one-factor solution that explained 73.8% of the variance.ConclusionThe SEM-CD Fv is a valid and reliable instrument to measure self-efficacy for managing chronic diseases in primary care patients.
