Evaluation of the Reliability and Validity of the Perceptions of Skills Enhanced Through School Health Education (PSE-SHE) Measure.
Background: School health education promotes health knowledge and skills, yet measurement of teens' health skills is limited. We psychometrically assessed the perceptions of skills enhanced through school health education (PSE-SHE) measure.
Methods: Cross-sectional data (n = 471) were collected from teens using Teen and Parent Surveys of Health, conducted through AmeriSpeak Panels. The survey included one 5-item question assessing teens' perceptions of health skills enhanced through school health education-including getting health information and services, and understanding factors influencing health, communication, decision-making, and advocacy. For each PSE-SHE item, a 3-level categorization measure was examined (strongly agree/agree, neither agree nor disagree, and strongly disagree/disagree). Cronbach's alphas and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) examined PSE-SHE measures' reliability and validity. Structural equation modeling used the CALIS procedure (SAS 9.4).
Results: High Cronbach's α = 0.91 was observed for the PSE-SHE measure, indicating internal consistency. Polychoric correlations among PSE-SHE items (0.68-0.81) were found. CFA confirmed substantial factor loadings (0.72-0.84, p < 0.0001) of each item on the latent factor (CFI = 0.98), supporting construct validity.
Implications for school health policy, practice, and equity: The reliable and valid PSE-SHE measure may inform skills-focused health education research.
Conclusions: Psychometric results confirm the PSE-SHE measure is valid in capturing perceptions of skills enhanced through school health education.
