Validating the factor structure and reliability of the sleep quality scale in a community-based study in Ibadan, Nigeria
Background
The sleep quality scale (SQS) is a comprehensive multidimensional sleep assessment scale used to evaluate sleep quality (SQ) among adults in the general population. However, the scale is yet to be validated among indigenous African populations such as in Nigeria. This study validated the factor structure and evaluated the reliability of a previously developed SQS among community-based adults in Ibadan, Nigeria.
Methods
Data on SQ was extracted from 3,635 adult (≥18 years) from the Community-based Investigation of the Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease (COMBAT-CVDs) study. Cronbach-alpha () was used to evaluate the internal consistency or reliability of the SQS (>50 % cut-off), while the original 6-factor model of the SQS was explored using exploratory (≥0.5 cut-offs) and confirmatory factor analyses. The chi-square goodness of fit test and multiple fit indices were used to assess model fit at a two-sided P < 0.05.
Results
Overall, the participant's mean age was 35.33±15.20 years, and 54.60 % were male. The overall reliability estimate for the SQS was 86.00 %, while the restoration after sleep subscale reliability was 93.00 %. The exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis showed that the original 6-factor model of the SQS is a more plausible model for this sample of community-based adults: comparative fit index >0.92, Tucker-Lewis index > 0.91, root mean square error of approximation ≤ 0.05.
Conclusion
Our findings revealed that the SQS is promising for population-based assessment of SQ and may also assist in identifying sleep-related disorders and monitoring the efficacy of sleep treatment among indigenous Africans.
期刊介绍:
Journal of the National Medical Association, the official journal of the National Medical Association, is a peer-reviewed publication whose purpose is to address medical care disparities of persons of African descent.
The Journal of the National Medical Association is focused on specialized clinical research activities related to the health problems of African Americans and other minority groups. Special emphasis is placed on the application of medical science to improve the healthcare of underserved populations both in the United States and abroad. The Journal has the following objectives: (1) to expand the base of original peer-reviewed literature and the quality of that research on the topic of minority health; (2) to provide greater dissemination of this research; (3) to offer appropriate and timely recognition of the significant contributions of physicians who serve these populations; and (4) to promote engagement by member and non-member physicians in the overall goals and objectives of the National Medical Association.
