摘要

目的：需要评估中国人对痴呆症态度的有效量表，以了解社区中耻辱感的程度和性质，设计适当的社会文化干预措施并评估其影响。本研究旨在翻译并验证简体中文12项痴呆诊断态度量表的澳大利亚版本。方法经过前后翻译过程，包括社区成员的预测，最终版本在澳大利亚对18岁或以上的普通话成年人（n = 325）进行。我们进行了探索性和验证性因素分析，并进行了内部一致性信度检验。结果最终版本有10个项目，涵盖了一个双因素结构，每个5个项目（“害怕标签”和“害怕丢脸”），具有高信度（α = 0.90）。结论简体中文痴呆诊断态度量表（SC-DDAS）适用于澳大利亚华人群体。未来的研究可以在此基础上进一步确定10项量表的心理测量特性，并评估其在告知和评估社区干预方面的效用。

Validation of a dementia diagnosis attitude scale in simplified Chinese with Mandarin-speaking adults in Australia

Objectives

Validated scales assessing dementia attitudes in Chinese populations are needed to understand the extent and nature of stigma in communities, design appropriate sociocultural interventions and assess their impact. This study was aimed at translating and validating an Australian version of the 12-item dementia diagnosis attitude scale in simplified Chinese.

Methods

Following a forward and backward translation process, including pretesting with community members, the final version was administered to Mandarin speaking adults aged 18 years or older in Australia (n = 325). We conducted exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, and internal consistency reliability testing.

Results

The final version had 10 items covering a two-factor structure of five items each (‘fear of labelling’ and ‘fear of losing face’) with high reliability (α = .90).

Conclusions

The simplified Chinese dementia diagnosis attitude scale (SC-DDAS) is robust for use with Chinese populations in Australia. Future studies can extend on this work to determine further psychometric properties of the 10-item scale and assess its utility in informing and evaluating community interventions.
