Abstract

Objectives: This methodological study aimed to establish the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Information Concealment Scale for Caregivers of palliative care patients.

Methods: The study was conducted between January and June 2023 with 155 caregivers who cared for patients hospitalized in the palliative care units of 2 hospitals in Istanbul, Turkey. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were performed for validity analysis. Cronbach's α, item-total correlation, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and Pearson correlation analysis were used for reliability analysis.

Results: Of the participants, 54.2% were female and 69% were married. The mean age was 37.96 ± 12.25 years. According to the exploratory factor analysis, the scale consisted of 3 subscales and 15 items. The first subscale of the scale was expressed as "misrepresentation of the disease'; the second subscale was defined as "concealment of information"; the third subscale was defined as "misrepresentation of the real situation." As a result of the modifications made in confirmatory factor analysis, the goodness-of-fit values were as follows: CMIN/DF(X²/Sd) = 175.16/815 = 2.16; GFI = 0.88; CFI = 0.91; RMSEA = 0.079; RMR = .070; NFI = 0.90. The Cronbach's α values of the subscale were between 0.79 and 0.87. ICC values were between 0.90 and 0.95 at a confidence interval of 95%. A positive correlation was determined between the subscales.

Significance of results: It was determined that the Turkish version of the Information Concealment Scale was a valid and reliable tool for caregivers.

土耳其版姑息治疗患者护理人员信息隐瞒量表的有效性和可靠性。

研究目的本方法学研究旨在确定土耳其版姑息治疗患者护理人员信息隐瞒量表的有效性和可靠性：研究于 2023 年 1 月至 6 月间进行，共有 155 名护理人员参加，他们负责护理在土耳其伊斯坦布尔两家医院姑息治疗科住院的患者。研究采用探索性因子分析和确认性因子分析进行有效性分析。信度分析采用了 Cronbach'sα、项目总相关性、类内相关系数（ICC）和皮尔逊相关分析：54.2%的参与者为女性，69%已婚。平均年龄为（37.96±12.25）岁。根据探索性因子分析，量表由 3 个分量表和 15 个项目组成。量表的第一个分量表被表述为 "对疾病的错误陈述"；第二个分量表被定义为 "隐瞒信息"；第三个分量表被定义为 "对真实情况的错误陈述"。经过确认性因子分析的修改，拟合优度值如下：CMIN/DF(X2/Sd)=175.16/815=2.16；GFI=0.88；CFI=0.91；RMSEA=0.079；RMR=0.070；NFI=0.90。子量表的 Cronbach's α 值介于 0.79 和 0.87 之间。在置信区间为 95% 的情况下，ICC 值介于 0.90 和 0.95 之间。各分量表之间呈正相关：结果表明，土耳其版信息隐藏量表是一种有效、可靠的护理工具。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
