Abstract

Background: Daily and regular use of cochlear implant (CI) processors is crucial for adapting to them and achieving optimal benefits. However, some obstacles to using CI processors exist, and it is important to identify these barriers and find solutions.

Purpose: This research evaluated the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Cochlear Implant Use Questionnaire (CIUQ) related to the barriers to cochlear implant use.

Methods: This is a cross-cultural adaptation of the CIUQ questionnaire. One hundred thirty-four adult CI users aged 18-60 participated in the study. This study evaluated the construct validity of the CIUQ using confirmatory factor analysis and the internal consistency reliability using Cronbach's alpha coefficient.

Results: In the current study, the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin coefficient was 0.75. The fit values obtained from the CFA applied to the CIUQ were satisfactory and within acceptable limits. Cronbach's α internal consistency coefficient for subscales ranged from 0.70 to 0.78, and the value was 0.8 for the overall scale.

Conclusion: The Turkish adaptation of the CIUQ, which was developed to measure CI usage habits and barriers to daily CI usage, was determined to be a reliable and valid measurement tool for adults using CI.

土耳其版“人工耳蜗使用问卷”的效度和信度。
背景:日常和定期使用人工耳蜗(CI)处理器对于适应它们并获得最佳效益至关重要。然而,使用CI处理器存在一些障碍,识别这些障碍并找到解决方案非常重要。目的:本研究评估土耳其版人工耳蜗使用问卷(CIUQ)与人工耳蜗使用障碍相关的效度和信度。方法:对CIUQ问卷进行跨文化改编。134名年龄在18-60岁的成年CI使用者参与了这项研究。本研究采用验证性因子分析评估CIUQ的结构效度,采用Cronbach’s alpha系数评估内部一致性信度。结果:本研究中,Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin系数为0.75。应用于CIUQ的CFA拟合值是令人满意的,在可接受的范围内。子量表的Cronbach's α内部一致性系数为0.70 ~ 0.78,整体量表的Cronbach's α内部一致性系数为0.8。结论:土耳其的CIUQ是用来测量CI使用习惯和日常CI使用障碍的,被认为是成年人使用CI的可靠和有效的测量工具。
