HİPOGLİSEMİ TUTUM VE DAVRANIŞ ÖLÇEĞİNİN TÜRKÇE VERSİYONUNUN PSİKOMETRİK ÖZELLİKLERİ

Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı, Hipoglisemi Tutum ve Davranış Ölçeğinin (HTDÖ) Türk toplumunda geçerlilik ve güvenilirliğini değerlendirmekti. Yöntem: Çalışmaya insülin kullanan Tip 2 diabetes mellitusu olan 153 birey katıldı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde içerik geçerlilik indeksi, Cronbach α, test tekrar test, madde toplam puan korelasyonu, açıklayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ve uyum istatistikleri kullanıldı. Bulgular: Cronbach alfa değerleri kaçınma alt boyutu için 0.71, güven alt boyutu için 0.72 ve anksiyete alt boyutu için 0.85 olarak belirlendi. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonuçları, uyarlanan ölçeğin faktör yapısının, özgün ölçekteki üç faktörlü model ile uyumlu olduğunu gösterdi. On bir maddeden oluşan Hipoglisemi Tutum ve Davranış Ölçeğinin 'hipoglisemiden kaçınma, hipoglisemik güven ve hipoglisemik endişe' olmak üzere üç faktörden meydana geldiği bulundu. Orijinal ölçekte olan 3 madde, hata varyansları negatif olduğu ve anlamlı t değerlerine sahip olmadığı için çıkarıldı. Sonuç: Sonuçlar, HTDÖ'nün Türk toplumu için geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçüm aracı olduğunu gösterdi.

Psychometric Properties of Turkish Version of Hypoglycemia Attitudes and Behavior Scale

Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the reliability and validity of the Hypoglycemia Attitudes and Behavior Scale (HABS) for the Turkish population. Method: The study was conducted with 153 individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus who used insulin. In evaluating data, content validity index, Cronbach α, test-retest testing, item total score correlation, explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis and concordance statistics were used. Results: Cronbach alpha values for the subscales were determined as 0.71 for avoidance, 0.72 for confidence, and 0.85 for anxiety. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the factor structure of the adapted scale was in accordance with the three-factor model of the original scale. It was found that the 11-item Hypoglycemia Attitudes and Behavior Scale consisted of three factors: avoidance of hypoglycemia, confidence in hypoglycemia, and anxiety concerning hypoglycemia. Three items in the original scale were removed because their error variances were negative and they did not have significant t values. Conclusion: The results showed that the HABS was a valid and reliable scale instrument for the Turkish population.
