Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to validate the Child Healthy Lifestyle Profile as an instrument for screening healthy behaviors in school-aged children in South Korea.

Methods: Self-reported questionnaires were administered to 454 students, comprising elementary-school students (n=221) and child cancer survivors (n=233). Reliability and validity were assessed using Cronbach's ⍺, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).

Results: Cronbach's ⍺, as a reliability test, was 0.87. Varimax rotation yielded nine factors with eigenvalues greater than 1 in the EFA, which explained 61.0% of the total variance. In the CFA, both convergent and discriminant validities were acceptable. Therefore, the Child Healthy Lifestyle Profile was validated as an assessment tool for Korean school-aged children.

Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the Child Healthy Lifestyle Profile was identified as a reliable and valid instrument for assessing healthy lifestyles in elementary-school children in South Korea.

韩国儿童健康生活方式概况的心理计量学验证:一项横断面研究。

目的:本研究旨在验证儿童健康生活方式概况作为筛查韩国学龄儿童健康行为的工具。方法:对454名小学生(n=221)和儿童癌症幸存者(n=233)进行问卷调查。采用Cronbach's法、探索性因子分析(EFA)和验证性因子分析(CFA)评估信度和效度。结果:Cronbach’s 信度检验为0.87。变异旋转在EFA中产生9个特征值大于1的因子，解释总方差的61.0%。在CFA中，收敛效度和判别效度都是可以接受的。因此，儿童健康生活方式概况被验证为韩国学龄儿童的评估工具。结论:基于本研究的结果，儿童健康生活方式概况被确定为评估韩国小学生健康生活方式的可靠和有效的工具。
