Abstract

Objectives: to analyze the validity and reliability of Kihon Checklist, Brazilian version, for assessing frailty in older adults hospitalized with cancer.

Methods: psychometric study. Content was analyzed by experts using the Content Validity Ratio. Internal structure was assessed by Exploratory Factor Analysis, Confirmatory Factor Analysis, and reliability. Sample of 250 individuals.

Results: content validity analysis using Content Validity Ratio excluded two items due to values below 0.60. Internal structure analysis showed a better fit in a two-dimensional structure with ten items, named KCL-ONCO10, explaining 66.48% of the phenomenon, with good fit and reliability indices (X2=38.98; p=0.04; GFI=0.98; CFI=0.99; AGFI=0.97; RMSEA=0.04; RMSR=0.05; α=0.84; Ω=0.84), but unstable in the construct replicability (GH Index=F1 0.89 - 0.69; F2 0.85 - 0.67).

Conclusions: KCL-ONCO10 demonstrated satisfactory validity and reliability evidence for assessing frailty in older adults hospitalized with cancer.

住院癌症患者的衰弱评估：巴西版基洪检查表的心理测量学研究。

目的：分析巴西版Kihon检查表用于评估老年癌症住院患者虚弱程度的效度和信度。方法：心理测量学研究。内容由专家使用内容效度比进行分析。内部结构采用探索性因子分析、验证性因子分析及信度评估。250个人的样本。结果：使用内容效度比进行内容效度分析，排除了两个值低于0.60的项目。内部结构分析显示，KCL-ONCO10 10项的二维结构拟合较好，解释了66.48%的现象，具有良好的拟合和信度指标（X2=38.98; p=0.04； GFI=0.98； CFI=0.99； AGFI=0.97； RMSEA=0.04； RMSR=0.05; α=0.84； Ω=0.84），但结构可复制性不稳定（GH指数=F1 0.89 ~ 0.69; F2 0.85 ~ 0.67）。结论：KCL-ONCO10在评估老年癌症住院患者虚弱方面具有令人满意的效度和信度证据。
