Parental Version of The Diabetes-Specific Self-Compassion Scale Scs-(Dp) Turkish Validity and Reliability Study

Year 2023, Volume: 1 Issue: 2, 43 - 48, 22.06.2023

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether the Turkish version of the ‘Parental version of the Diabetes-Specific Self-Compassion Scale SCS-(Dp)’ is valid and reliable.

Material and Method: In the study, 102 parents of children with Type 1 diabetes who continued their routine check-ups in a training and research hospital between July 2021 and October 2021 were interviewed. The questionnaire and scale questions collected data about sociodemographic characteristics, diabetes-related characteristics, and self-compassion. Exploratory factor analysis, correlation test analyses, and Cronbach α reliability coefficient were used to evaluate the data.

Results: The present study found that SCS-(Dp) had appropriate language and content validity. The study’s scale reliability and internal consistency were evaluated by item analysis, Cronbach’s alpha. As a result of the item total score correlation, the values of all items were between 0.312 and 0.648. When the 27% scores of the item groups and the upper and lower group scores were compared using the independent Group t-test to determine the upper 27% differentiation of the subscale items, a statistically significant difference was found between the item score averages. The Cronbach Alpha coefficient of the scale was found to be 0.825 for the negative sub-dimension, 0.763 for the positive sub-dimension, and 0.817 for the total scale.

Conclusion: The Turkish version of the SCS-(Dp) used in the present study has appropriate language and content validity. According to exploratory factor analysis, correlation test analysis, and Cronbach α reliability coefficient analysis, it was found that SCS-(Dp) was an excellent and reliable measurement tool.

Diyabete Özgü Öz Merhamet Ölçeği Ebeveyn Versiyonu Ömö-(De) Türkçe Geçerlilik ve Güvenilirlik Çalışması

Year 2023, Volume: 1 Issue: 2, 43 - 48, 22.06.2023

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada ‘Diyabete Özgü Öz-Merhamet Ölçeği ÖMÖ-(De) Ebeveyn Versiyonu’ Türkçe versiyonunun geçerli ve güvenilir olup olmadığının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmada Temmuz 2021-Ekim 2021 tarihleri arasında bir eğitim ve araştırma hastanesinde rutin kontrollerini sürdüren Tip 1 diyabetli çocuğu olan 102 ebeveyn ile görüşülmüştür. Anket ve ölçek soruları ile sosyodemografik özellikler, diyabetle ilgili özellikler ve öz-merhamet hakkında veriler toplandı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde açıklayıcı faktör analizleri, korelasyon testi analizleri ve Cronbach α güvenirlik katsayısı kullanılmıştır.

Bulgular: Çalışma dil ve kapsam geçerliği açısından ÖMÖ-(De) uygun bulunmuştur. Araştırmanın ölçeğin güvenirliği ve iç tutarlılığı madde analizi, Cronbach alfa ile değerlendirilmiştir. Madde toplam puan korelasyonu sonucunda tüm maddelerin değerleri 0,312 ile 0,648 arasındadır. Alt ölçek maddelerinin üst %27’lik farklılaşmasını belirlemek için bağımsız Grup t-testi kullanılarak madde gruplarının %27’lik puanları ile üst ve alt grup puanları karşılaştırıldığında, madde puan ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur. Ölçeğin Cronbach Alpha katsayısı olumsuz alt boyut için 0,825, olumlu alt boyut için 0,763 ve toplam ölçek için 0,817 olarak bulunmuştur.

Sonuç: Bu çalışmada kullanılan ÖMÖ-(De)’nin Türkçe versiyonu uygun dil ve içerik geçerliliğine sahipti. Açıklayıcı faktör analizi, korelasyon testi analizi ve Cronbach α güvenirlik katsayısı analizine göre ÖMÖ-(De)’nin mükemmel ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olduğu görülmüştür.
