Abstract

Background: Determining the self-efficacy perceptions of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients has a key role in health care practices. With further evaluation, the Self-Efficacy Measure for Sleep Apnea (SEMSA) could serve as a useful scale to develop specific interventions to increase self-efficacy in patients with OSA during the acceptance and maintenance of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.

Objective: The aim of this study is to translate the SEMSA into Turkish and to evaluate the psychometric properties of the translation.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out with a sample of patients recently diagnosed with CPAP-naïve OSA. Linguistic and content validity of the scale were evaluated, while exploratory factor analysis and 2-level confirmatory factor analysis were used for validity. Internal consistency and test-retest methods were used in reliability analyses.

Results: The mean (SD) age of the patients with OSA was 51.36 (11.29), and 68% were male. The item factor loads obtained as a result of the confirmatory factor analysis ranged from 0.44 to 0.94, confirming the three-factor structure of the instrument. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was found to be 0.90. Measurements made within the scope of test-retest analysis were found to be related and consistent results were obtained in the intervening time (P < .01).

Conclusions: In this study, the Turkish version of SEMSA was found to be a valid and reliable tool and it could be used to evaluate the adherence-related cognition in Turkish patients with OSA on CPAP therapy.

土耳其版睡眠呼吸暂停自我效能测量（SEMSA）工具的心理计量特性。

背景：确定阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）患者的自我效能感在医疗保健实践中起着关键作用。通过进一步评估，睡眠呼吸暂停自我效能测量（SEMSA）可作为一种有用的量表，用于制定具体的干预措施，以提高阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）患者在接受和维持持续气道正压（CPAP）治疗期间的自我效能：本研究旨在将 SEMSA 翻译成土耳其语，并评估翻译的心理测量特性：这项横断面研究的对象是最近被诊断为不使用 CPAP 的 OSA 患者。对量表的语言有效性和内容有效性进行了评估，同时采用了探索性因子分析和两级确认性因子分析来验证量表的有效性。信度分析采用了内部一致性和重测法：OSA 患者的平均（标清）年龄为 51.36（11.29）岁，68% 为男性。确认性因子分析得出的项目因子载荷在 0.44 至 0.94 之间，证实了该工具的三因子结构。量表的 Cronbach's α 系数为 0.90。在重测分析范围内进行的测量被认为是相关的，并且在间隔时间内获得了一致的结果（P 结论）：本研究发现，土耳其版 SEMSA 是一种有效且可靠的工具，可用于评估接受 CPAP 治疗的土耳其 OSA 患者与坚持治疗相关的认知。
