摘要
目的:开发和评估阿拉伯语版的OBC-21问卷,供黎凡特阿拉伯语人群使用。方法:对OBC-21进行结构化的翻译和文化适应过程,然后对翻译充分性和内容效度进行评估。采用内部一致性检验信度,并进行重测信度评估。结果:所有117名参与者完成了两次调查,间隔两周。OBC总分的重测信度非常好,ICC为0.84 (95% CI = [0.77; 0.88]), OBC评分的信度非常好,Cohen’s Kappa为0.81。内部一致性也很好,Cronbach's alpha为0.8 (95% CI =[0.75; 0.8])。结论:阿拉伯语版本的OBC-21似乎是评估口腔行为的可靠工具。未来的研究需要在临床环境中建立工具的结构效度。
Translation and cultural adaptation of an Arabic version of the OBC-21.
Objective: To develop and evaluate an Arabic version of the OBC-21 questionnaire for use among Levantine Arabic-speaking populations.
Methods: A structured translation and cultural adaptation process was performed for the OBC-21, followed by assessment of translational sufficiency and content validity. Reliability was tested with internal consistency, and test-retest reliability was evaluated.
Results: All 117 participants completed the survey twice, two weeks apart. The test-retest reliability of the OBC sum scores was excellent, with an ICC of 0.84 (95% CI = [0.77; 0.88]), and the reliability of OBC grades was very good, with a Cohen's Kappa of 0.81. Internal consistency was also very good, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.8 (95% CI = [0.75; 0.8]).
Conclusion: The Arabic version of the OBC-21 seems to be a reliable tool for assessing oral behaviors. Future studies need to establish the construct validity of the tool in the clinical settings.
