Turkish validity and reliability of telemedicine awareness, knowledge, attitude and skills questionnaire.
Objective: The aim of the study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the "Telemedicine Awareness, Knowledge, Attitude, and Skills (AKAS) of Telemedicine" questionnaire and to convert the questionnaire to Turkish.
Methods: The study is methodological research conducted among medical faculty students and medical residents. For the validity and reliability analysis of the "AKAS of Telemedicine" questionnaire, 425 medical faculty students and medical residents were included in the study, and the sample was 7-10 times the number of questionnaire items. Exploratory factor analysis was performed for construct validity. The test-retest method was engaged to assess reliability. Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient and the item-total correlation coefficient were calculated for internal consistency. Descriptive statistics were given as mean, standard deviation, median, and first and third quartile values for numerical variables, and numbers and percentages for categorical variables. The Mann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman's correlation coefficient were conducted to evaluate the correlation between variables.
Results: The Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient of the "AKAS of Telemedicine" questionnaire was found to be 0.950, 0.851, 0.970, and 0.952 in the sub-areas, respectively. When an item was removed, the Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient values ranged between 0.826 and 0.969, and no significant difference was detected. As a result of test-retest reliability analysis, a strong positive correlation was found between the total scores (awareness r=0.848, knowledge r=0.792, attitude r=0.787, and skill r=0.816; p<0.001 for each score).
Conclusion: The Turkish form of the "AKAS of Telemedicine" questionnaire is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used to evaluate the level of AKAS among physicians. It was concluded that research using the "AKAS of Telemedicine" questionnaire would be useful to determine the telemedicine AKAS levels among Turkiye, particularly in health sector workers.
期刊介绍:
Classical Philology has been an internationally respected journal for the study of the life, languages, and thought of the Ancient Greek and Roman world since 1906. CP covers a broad range of topics from a variety of interpretative points of view. CP welcomes both longer articles and short notes or discussions that make a significant contribution to the study of Greek and Roman antiquity. Any field of classical studies may be treated, separately or in relation to other disciplines, ancient or modern. In particular, we invite studies that illuminate aspects of the languages, literatures, history, art, philosophy, social life, and religion of ancient Greece and Rome. Innovative approaches and originality are encouraged as a necessary part of good scholarship.
