UNASSIGNED: To translate the parent version of the Post-Discharge Coping Difficulty Scale (Ped-PDCDS) from English to Chinese and test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version in parents of premature infants.
UNASSIGNED: A multicenter cross-sectional study of 356 parents of premature infants was conducted. The scale was symmetrically translated. Validity was evaluated in terms of content, construct, discriminant, and convergent validities. Reliability was assessed in terms of internal consistency, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability.
UNASSIGNED: The Chinese Ped-PDCDS finally contained 11 items. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses results showed that the Chinese Ped-PDCDS had three dimensions, and the convergent and discriminant validities of the scale was satisfactory. The overall reliability, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability of the scale was 0.85, 0.92, and 0.84, respectively.
UNASSIGNED: The Chinese Ped-PDCDS has adequate psychometric properties, and is an easy and appropriate instrument for measuring parents\' difficulty in coping with premature infants.
■将父母版出院后应对难度量表(Ped-PDCDS)从英文译成中文,并测试中文版在早产儿父母中的信度和效度。
■对356名早产儿父母进行了多中心横断面研究。比例尺对称平移。有效性是根据内容进行评估的,construct,判别式,和收敛的效价。可靠性是根据内部一致性进行评估的,半分割可靠性,和重测可靠性。
■中文Ped-PDCDS最终包含11个项目。探索性和验证性因素分析结果表明,中国Ped-PDCDS具有三个维度,量表的收敛性和判别效度令人满意。整体可靠性,半分割可靠性,量表的重测信度分别为0.85、0.92和0.84。
■中国Ped-PDCDS具有足够的心理测量特性,并且是测量父母应对早产儿困难的简单而适当的工具。
