Abstract

The attitude of psychiatrists plays a crucial role in screening and supporting smoking cessation, especially with people with serious mental illness (SMI). The development of an attitude scale can improve the success of quitting among people with SMI. This study aimed to develop and test the psychometric properties of psychiatrists' attitudes toward smoking cessation support (PATSS). Based on the literature review, the attitude scale, which comprised 15 items, was developed and tested with 289 psychiatrists. The tool's psychometric properties were tested by examining item performance, content and construct validity (by exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and reliability. The content validity was demonstrated by content validity ratio (CVR) (0.80) and item content validity index (ICVI) (0.88). Both EFA and CFA identified four factors: Priority and Time Commitment, Recovery Impact and Training, Social Support and Patient Factors, and Coping Mechanisms and Rights. A Cronbach alpha of (0.81) demonstrated high internal consistency. PATSS was found to be a valid and reliable tool to assess the attitude of psychiatrists towards smoking cessation support provided to people with SMI.

精神科医生对戒烟支持（PATSS）的态度：探索测量工具的心理测量特性。

精神科医生的态度在筛查和支持戒烟方面起着至关重要的作用，特别是对于患有严重精神疾病（SMI）的人。态度量表的开发可以提高重度精神障碍患者戒烟的成功率。本研究旨在开发和测试精神科医生对戒烟支持（PATSS）态度的心理测量特性。在文献回顾的基础上，由15个项目组成的态度量表被开发出来，并由289名精神科医生进行了测试。通过考察项目性能、内容和结构效度（探索性因子分析（EFA）、验证性因子分析（CFA）和信度）来检验工具的心理测量特性。以内容效度比（CVR）为0.80，项目内容效度指数（ICVI）为0.88来验证内容效度。EFA和CFA都确定了四个因素：优先级和时间承诺，康复影响和培训，社会支持和患者因素，以及应对机制和权利。Cronbach alpha（0.81）表明内部一致性高。PATSS被发现是评估精神科医生对重度精神分裂症患者戒烟支持态度的有效和可靠的工具。
