Abstract

Aim

The study was a methodological conducted to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Diabetes Caregiver Activity and Support Scale (D-CASS).

Methods

This study was included on 272 individuals who cared for patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at least one year ago. Language, content, internal criterion, construct-concept validity were used to test the validity of the scale, and cronbach alpha, item-scale correlation, and test-retest were used to test the reliability.

Results

The CVI was 0.95. The study was conducted with 272(60.3% female, 39.7% male) caregivers of individuals with type 2 diabetes. The study was found four week test-retest reliability with r = 0.70, p < 0001. The factor loadings of the scale items are between 0.77 and 0.95. The single factor obtained explains 75% of the total variance. The scale was found to have a high degree of reliability (Cronbach alpha=0.95).

Conclusion

The activities and supportive behaviours scale of caregivers of individuals with type 2 diabetes(D-CASS) is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used for the Turkish population.

评估土耳其版糖尿病护理者活动与支持量表（D-CASS）的心理测量特性

目的本研究对土耳其版糖尿病护理者活动与支持量表（D-CASS）的有效性和可靠性进行了方法学评估。方法本研究的对象包括 272 名至少一年前曾护理过确诊为 2 型糖尿病患者的护理者。语言效度、内容效度、内部标准效度、建构-概念效度用于检验量表的效度，克朗巴赫α、项目-尺度相关性和重复测试用于检验量表的信度。研究对象为 272 名 2 型糖尿病患者的护理人员（女性占 60.3%，男性占 39.7%）。研究发现，四周测试-再测信度为 r = 0.70，p < 0001。量表项目的因子载荷介于 0.77 和 0.95 之间。获得的单因子解释了总方差的 75%。结论2型糖尿病患者照顾者活动和支持行为量表（D-CASS）是一种有效、可靠的测量工具，可用于土耳其人群。
