It was determined in the present study that the needs of the parents of children with cancer to know about the treatment, side effects, prognoses, and how to provide care to their child at home and to be informed by healthcare personnel in understandable language and the needs of child to ask questions easily were most important.…”

“…This study supports FIN-PED II as an effective tool for measuring of the care needs of parents of children with cancer as well as established studies about the reliability and content validity of FIN-PED II. [9,11,13,14] This study provided a tool about the needs of parents of children with cancer, which is a topic that has not previously been studied in Turkey. The met and unmet needs of the parents can be determined by studying the validity and reliability of a recent version of FIN-PED II.…”

This study was conducted to translate and adapt the Family Inventory of Needs-Pediatric II (FIN-PED II) into the Turkish language and investigate its validity and reliability for parents of children with cancer. METHODS A self-administered questionnaire and Family Inventory of Needs-Pediatric II was completed by 180 parents whose children (0-18 years old) were diagnosed with leukemia, solid tumors, and central nervous system tumors. FIN-PED II was translated into Turkish and then back-translated and then evaluated by three experts for face validity. For construct validity, exploratory factor analysis was applied and for reliability, internal consistency analysis was employed. RESULTS As a result of exploratory factor analysis, it was observed that percentages of explaining total variance were 74.787%, 68.649%, and 72.746% for sections of the importance of care needs, the need fulfilment, and the need for further information, respectively. As a result of Cronbach's Alpha reliability analysis, the reliabilities of the sections on the importance of care needs, need fulfilment, and the need for further information for FIN-PED II was 0.814, 0.906, and 0.915. CONCLUSION Although the Turkish version of FIN-PED II needs further psychometric testing, it is an effective, valid and reliable tool to find out the care needs of parents of children with cancer.

“…The emotional and psychosocial needs of parents of children with cancer have often been neglected with the physical and emotional needs of the child undergoing treatment taking precedence (Young et al, 2002). With an understanding that the health and well-being of the parent play a vital role in the well-being of their child with cancer and their overall family's well-being (Arabiat et al, 2015), the modified, translated version of the rCPNQ proved to be a reliable measure for discovering parental needs. The PCA resulted in a 6-dimension, 8-factor, 29-item survey.…”

“…Nor do they expect to hold a positive sense of hope as the experience of suffering is seen as a normal response to a child's illness (Leavitt et al, 1999). Interestingly, in a study of parents of children with cancer in Jordan, the parents described to researchers their feelings of distress and guilt when answering a study question about being hopeful (Arabiat et al, 2015). Another area in which cultural or institutional differences may have occurred includes items relating to financial concerns.…”

“…Monterosso et al (2006) examined the validity and reliability of the FIN-PED II’s reduced item structure with a population of parents of children with cancer in Australia and found that the survey had high internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = .83-.98) on all three scales and satisfactory test–retest coefficient of stability (coefficient = .74-.94). Using a translated version of the FIN-PED II, Arabiat, Hamdan-Mansour, Al Jabery, Wardam, and Tamimi (2015) studied the needs of parents of children with cancer in Jordan to investigate the psychometric quality and applicability of the tool for families in Jordan. They found the survey applicable to parents in Jordan and discovered many similarities between the needs of parents in Jordan and Australia (Arabiat et al, 2015).…”

The psychosocial well-being of parents remains integral to the treatment and recovery of children diagnosed with cancer. However, limited research addresses the unique needs of this population. To better understand the supportive care needs of parents of children with cancer, this study tested the reliability and stability of the factorial structure of a revised version of the Cancer Patient Needs Questionnaire (rCPNQ) with Chinese parents of children who have cancer. Analysis of the generalizability of the rCPNQ with this population was determined through principle components analysis with varimax rotation. Reliability coefficient and split sample analyses were performed to determine reliability and stability of the resulting factors. The principal components analysis resulted in a 6-dimension, 8-factor, 29-item survey. Each of the factors had Cronbach's α ≥ .74, indicating satisfactory internal consistency and reliability of the survey with the Chinese population. Similar loadings on splitting of the samples reflects the stability of the factors. Study results provided a preliminary understanding of the needs of Chinese parents of children with cancer and demonstrated that the rCPNQ offers a reliable measure for nurses and other health care providers to partner with Chinese parents throughout their children's treatment and survivorship to determine areas for support.

Background and PurposeHypertension is rapidly increasing in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), particularly among men. Assessment of hypertension self-care behaviors is a critical step to promoting blood pressure control. This study aimed to evaluate the Hypertension Self-Care Profile (HBP-SCP) among Saudi men in KSA.MethodsThe HBP-SCP self-efficacy and behavior scales were translated into Arabic and tested on a convenience sample of 160 Saudi men with hypertension. Cronbach’s alpha and factor analysis were conducted using SPSS.ResultsInternal consistency of the Arabic HBP self-care and selfefficacy scales was 0.84 and 0.90, respectively. Factor loading ranged from 0.25 to 0.70 for HBP self-care behaviors and from 0.28 to 0.77 for HBP self-efficacy.ConclusionsThe Arabic HBP-SCP is acceptable in its reliability and validity for measuring HBP self-care behaviors and self-efficacy among Saudi men with hypertension.
