Abstract

Background: Life balance is an important concept in occupational therapy and is considered an essential component of the outcomes of life, such as happiness, and satisfaction of needs.

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Life Balance Inventory (LBI) in healthy individuals.

Materials and methods: The study consisted of three stages: (1) translation and cultural adaptation, (2) testing internal consistency and reliability, and (3) checking construct validity of LBI. The LBI and the Juhnke-Balkin Life Balance Inventory were implemented.

Results: The study was completed with a total of 312 individuals. Cronbach's alpha for Turkish LBI (T-LBI) total score was 0.939. The test-retest ICC scores of T-LBI were found to be 0.986 for the 'health' subscale, 0.980 for the 'relationship' subscale, 0.974 for the 'identity' subscale, and 0.990 for the 'challenge/interest' subscale. The total ICC score of the inventory was 0.989.

Conclusion and significance: The T-LBI is a valid and reliable assessment tool for measuring life balance in healthy individuals. We believe that our results will anticipate to increase the number of studies on life balance in the field of occupational therapy in Turkey.

土耳其版生活平衡量表:效度、信度和文化适应研究。

背景:生活平衡是职业治疗中的一个重要概念，被认为是生活结果的重要组成部分，如幸福和需求的满足。目的:本研究的目的是调查土耳其版生命平衡量表(LBI)在健康个体中的效度和信度。材料和方法:研究分为三个阶段:(1)翻译和文化适应，(2)检验内部一致性和信度，(3)检验LBI的结构效度。实施LBI和Juhnke-Balkin生命平衡量表。结果:研究共完成312人。土耳其人LBI (T-LBI)总分的Cronbach's alpha为0.939。T-LBI的“健康”子量表重测ICC得分为0.986，“关系”子量表为0.980，“认同”子量表为0.974，“挑战/兴趣”子量表为0.990。量表的ICC总分为0.989。结论及意义:T-LBI是一种有效、可靠的测量健康个体生活平衡的评估工具。我们相信，我们的研究结果将有望增加土耳其职业治疗领域生活平衡研究的数量。
