Abstract

This study was conducted to adapt the Sinclair Compassion Questionnaire into Turkish and to test its validity and reliability. The sample of the methodological study consisted of 390 patients who were hospitalized in internal and surgical clinics. The data were collected between May 2022 and December 2022 using the Personal Information Form, Newcastle Nursing Care Satisfaction Scale and Sinclair Compassion Questionnaire. The Sinclair Compassion Questionnaire consists of 15 items, containing a single latent compassion factor. Validity analysis included content validity index, concurrent validity, convergent validity, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis included test-retest and reliability analysis using Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient. The content validity index of the scale was found to be between 0.88 and 1.00. Confirmatory factor analysis χ² = 283.754, dF = 71, RMSEA = 0.078, indicating a good/excellent fit for the model. The item means of the scale ranged between 4.43 ± 0.60 and 4.10 ± 0.47, and the factor loadings ranged between 0.672 and 0.824. Convergent validity is at an acceptable level (r = 0.674). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.94. The Sinclair Compassion Questionnaire is a valid and reliable instrument to assess patients' experiences of compassion in Turkish populations with acute and chronic diseases.

辛克莱同情问卷对土耳其语的改写：效度与信度研究。

本研究将辛克莱同情问卷改编成土耳其文，并检验其效度和信度。方法学研究的样本包括390名在内科和外科诊所住院的患者。数据收集于2022年5月至2022年12月，采用个人信息表、纽卡斯尔护理满意度量表和辛克莱同情问卷。辛克莱同情心问卷包含15个项目，包含一个潜在的同情心因素。效度分析包括内容效度指标、并发效度、收敛效度、探索性因子分析、验证性因子分析，信度分析包括重测，信度分析采用Cronbach’s alpha信度系数。量表的内容效度指数在0.88 ~ 1.00之间。验证性因子分析χ2 = 283.754, dF = 71, RMSEA = 0.078，表明模型拟合良好/极好。量表的项目均值在4.43±0.60 ~ 4.10±0.47之间，因子负荷在0.672 ~ 0.824之间。收敛效度处于可接受水平（r = 0.674）。量表的Cronbach's alpha系数为0.94。辛克莱同情问卷是一个有效和可靠的工具，以评估病人的同情经验，在土耳其人口的急性和慢性疾病。
