GONCALVES DE BRITO, Karen Krystine et al. Attitude and self-care practice in hansen's disease: construction and psychometric validation of measuring instruments. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2021, vol.20, n.64, pp.532-583. Epub 25-Out-2021. ISSN 1695-6141. https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/eglobal.472321.
Objective:
To build and test the content validity of the instrument, attitude, and practice of self-care in leprosy, with face, hands, and feet.
Method:
Methodological study of technology validation and quantitative approach. An instrument called Attitude and Practice of Self-Care in Hansen's Disease was developed, containing two constructs, three dimensions and 45 items. The validation used analysis through the evaluation of the internal consistency of each item / dimension and the Kappa inter-observer agreement index.
Results:
The validity index indicated the need for adjustments to the original composition of the scale, which now consists of 45 questions to 52, with the inclusion of a fourth dimension, showing high inter-agreement observers in the second version (K≥0.99).
Conclusion:
The scale has adequate psychometric properties, revealing potential for use in future studies.
