Abstract
Purpose: The bilingual Malaysia Medication Adherence Assessment Tool (MyMAAT) was developed using the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and the current study intended to confirm the measurement model, dimensionality and ensure the factor structure by the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The objective of this study was to validate the Malay version of the MyMAAT in measuring medication adherence among participants with chronic medications.
Patients and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-report questionnaire at five health clinics and a hospital in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya region between May to November 2023. The participants were selected using quota sampling and written informed consent was obtained from each participant prior to data collection. There are two constructs in the MyMAAT, namely the Specific Medication-Taking Behaviour (Factor 1) and the Social-Cognitive Theory of Self-Efficacy and Social Support (Factor 2).
Results: Four hundred and seventy participants participated in the CFA study. The final model for the Malay version of the MyMAAT retained the two constructs and 12 items with good fit: CFI = 0.978, TLI = 0.973, RMSEA = 0.036 (90% CI 0.001,0.067) and with good composite reliability CR 0.790 for Factor 1 and 0.787 for Factor 2. The factor loadings ranged from 0.413 to 0.832 with p-value < 0.001. The AVE for Factor 1 was 0.664 and for Factor 2 was 0.491. There was a strong correlation (ρ = 0.507, p < 0.001) between the Malay version of the MyMAAT and the Malay version of the MMAS-8 by adherence category from the data of 191 participants. Twenty-six participants completed the test-retest after five to ten days from the first administration. The Malay version of the MyMAAT showed moderate to excellent with ICC 0.932 (95% CI: 0.661,0.986) for Factor 1 and poor to excellent for with ICC 0.956 (95% CI:0.325,0.997) for Factor 2 by using the Two-Way Mixed Model and Consistency type.
Conclusion: It is concluded that the Malay version of the MyMAAT is valid and reliable in measuring medication adherence among patients with chronic medications.
期刊介绍：
Patient Preference and Adherence is an international, peer reviewed, open access journal that focuses on the growing importance of patient preference and adherence throughout the therapeutic continuum. The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of reviews, original research, modeling and clinical studies across all therapeutic areas. Patient satisfaction, acceptability, quality of life, compliance, persistence and their role in developing new therapeutic modalities and compounds to optimize clinical outcomes for existing disease states are major areas of interest for the journal.
As of 1st April 2019, Patient Preference and Adherence will no longer consider meta-analyses for publication.
