“…Reliability is an indicator for assessing the accuracy and consistency of measuring methods and relates to the stability and consistency of the survey scale ( Zheng et al, 2023 ). Utilizing Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, split-half reliability, and test–retest reliability, the scale’s reliability was assessed ( Mehta et al, 2018 ).…”

ObjectiveThis study’s objectives were to translate the Health Behavior Motivation Scale (HBMS) into Chinese and verify the scale’s validity and reliability among Chinese healthy adults.MethodThe HBMS scales were translated into Chinese based on Brislin’s principles. The Chinese version of HBMS is created through translation, back translation, and cross-cultural adaptation. This investigation implemented the convenience sampling method to conduct a survey on 781 healthy respondents, utilizing the Chinese version of the HBMS and a general demographic questionnaire. We used AMOS (v28.0) and SPSS (v26.0) for statistical analysis. We employed test–retest reliability, split-half reliability, and internal consistency to assess the reliability of the translation questionnaire. Structure validity and content validity were used to assess validity.ResultsThe Chinese version of the Health Behavior Motivation Scale (HBMS) had a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.885, and the range of Cronbach’s alpha values for each dimension was 0.820–0.885. The scale’s test–retest reliability was 0.824, and its split-half reliability was 0.906. Five public factors with a cumulative variance contribution of 56.527% were retrieved from the exploratory factor analysis. Moreover, the factor loading value for each item exceeded 0.4.In confirmatory factor analysis, the indicators were reported as follows: χ2/df = 1.567, GFI = 0.900, CFI = 0.952, IFI = 0.952, TLI = 0.946, AGFI = 0.881, PGFI = 0.757, PNFI = 0.789, RMSEA = 0.039, and the results of the model fit metrics were within the reference range.ConclusionThe Chinese version of the HBMS exhibits strong discrimination, validity, and reliability. The tool effectively identifies the motivation of healthy people to engage in healthy behaviors. It can be used by healthcare practitioners to assist in the development of follow-up interventions to reduce the prevalence of chronic disease in older people and the incidence of chronic disease in populations of young and middle-aged people.

“…To determine whether the difference between high and low groupings, significance was set at p < 0.05. A critical ratio (CR) > 3.000 indicate that the items were well discriminated [ 29 , 30 ]. Correlation coefficients were used to evaluate the independence and homogeneity of the items.…”

“…Content validity refers to the extent to which the items of a research instrument reflect the content to be measured. Experts in the relevant field were invited to assess the content validity index of the questionnaire's items (I-CVI) and the content validity index of the scale (S-CVI) through Delphi expert correspondence [ 29 ]. In this study, seven experts were invited to evaluate the scale items using a 4-point Likert scale.…”

Objective The objective of this study was to translate the Elderly-Constipation Impact Scale into Chinese and to examine its reliability and validity in a population of older people suffering from chronic constipation. Methods In this study, the scale was paraphrased, back-translated, cross-culturally adapted and pre-experimented using the Brislin double translation-back-translation method to create the initial Chinese version of the Elderly-Constipation Impact Scale. A convenience sampling method was used to select 564 study participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in Liaoning and Shanxi, China, to evaluate the reliability and validity of the scale. General information about the study population was using descriptive statistics; item analysis was used to screen the items of the scale. Content validity, exploratory factor analysis, and validation factor analysis were chosen to validate the scales; internal consistency, spilt-half reliability and retest reliability were used determine the reliability of the measurement scales. Results The Chinese version of the Elderly-Constipation Impact Scale contains 7 dimensions and 21 items. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total scale was 0.901 and the range of Cronbach's alpha values for each dimension was 0.707 to 0.918. The split-half reliability of the scale was 0.736 and the retest reliability was 0.763. The exploratory factor analysis showed a KMO value of 0.873 and a Bartlett's spherical test X2 value of 3499.978 (p < 0.001). A total of seven common factors were extracted, namely daily activities, treatment satisfaction, lack of control of bodily function, diet restriction, symptom intensity, anxiety and preventive actions, with a cumulative variance contribution of 77.813%. Each item had a loading value > 0.4 on its common factor. In the validation factor analysis, the model fit results were X2 / df = 1.886, GFI = 0.910, AGFI = 0.874, PGFI = 0.654, IFI = 0.955, TLI = 0.942, CFI = 0.954, RMSEA = 0.056 and PNFI = 0.718. The model fit indicators were all within acceptable limits. Conclusion The Chinese version of the E-CIS has good reliability and validity in the chronic constipation population of elderly individuals. The results of the questionnaire can effectively and comprehensively reflect the impact of chronic constipation on the quality of life of elderly individuals. It provides a meaningful reference for identifying targets for intervention.

Objective As the population continues to age, community-based primary care for the elderly increases to an important level. The aim of this study was to translate the Self-assessment scale for the community- based and emergency practice (C-CEP) into Chinese and to test its reliability and validity among medical students. Methods After gaining access to the C-CEP scale, the Brislin translation-back translation model was used for translation and cross-cultural adaptation. 600 medical students were recruited to participate in this study using a convenience sampling method (n = 600). General information about the study population was analyzed by descriptive statistics; item analysis was used to screen the scale items; the reliability of the Chinese version of the questionnaire was measured by internal consistency, split-half reliability, and retest reliability; the validity of the questionnaire was measured by content validity and structural validity. Results The English version of the C-CEP consisted of 15 items and the analysis of the items showed that all indicators were met. The Cronbach's alpha for the translated scale was 0.933 and the range of Cronbach's alpha for each dimension was 0.927–0.931. The retest reliability was 0.754 and the split-half reliability was 0.883. The four-factor structure explained a cumulative 74.897% of the total variance. All the content validity was met. The results of the validation factor analysis showed that χ²/ df = 1.906, RMR = 0.031, GFI = 0.931, AGFI = 0.901, IFI = 0.974, TLI = 0.967, CFI = 0.973, PNFI = 0.757, PGFI = 0.651 and RMSEA = 0.055. The model-fit indicators were all within acceptable limits. Conclusions The Chinese version of the Self-assessment scale for the community- based and emergency practice had good reliability and validity and could effectively assess medical students' self-practice skills. The scale could provide intervention targets for medical educators to explore the direction of community practice education for medical students to improve their practice emergencies.
