Age-friendly cities and communities questionnaire: A research on Turkish validity and reliability.
Purpose: This study has been conducted to test the Turkish Validity and Reliability of the Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Questionnaire.
Materials and methods: This methodological research has been carried out in a health center in Istanbul between January and April 2021. Between the specified dates, 306 older adults who met the research criteria within the population of the research, who accepted to participate and returned the filled-out questionnaires have been included in the study. The items of the scale are scored between -2, 2 and the scale consists of 20 items and 8 sub-dimensions. After the scale was translated, the content and structure validity tests were carried out.
Results: As a result of the evaluations and analyses, the content validity index of the scale was found to be 0.96. In the explanatory factor analysis conducted in the adaptation of the scale to Turkish, the total variance rate explained was found to be 92.36%. The factor loads of all items ranged between 0.71 and 0.91. The Cronbach Alpha values of the sub-dimensions of the scale ranged from .899 to .969, and the total Cronbach Alpha value was determined as .954. EFA and CFA results showed that the scale consists of 8 sub-dimensions with 20 items and the factor structure is sufficient. Good coherence index values were obtained as a result of CFA.
Conclusion: The Turkish version of the Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Questionnaire is a valid and reliable measurement tool to evaluate age-friendly practices in an area where older adults live.
期刊介绍：
Archives of Environmental & Occupational Health , originally founded in 1919 as the Journal of Industrial Hygiene, and perhaps most well-known as the Archives of Environmental Health, reports, integrates, and consolidates the latest research, both nationally and internationally, from fields germane to environmental health, including epidemiology, toxicology, exposure assessment, modeling and biostatistics, risk science and biochemistry. Publishing new research based on the most rigorous methods and discussion to put this work in perspective for public health, public policy, and sustainability, the Archives addresses such topics of current concern as health significance of chemical exposure, toxic waste, new and old energy technologies, industrial processes, and the environmental causation of disease such as neurotoxicity, birth defects, cancer, and chronic degenerative diseases. For more than 90 years, this noted journal has provided objective documentation of the effects of environmental agents on human and, in some cases, animal populations and information of practical importance on which decisions are based.
