RELIABILITY AND VALIDITY OF THE TURKISH VERSION OF THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL FEAR OF INJECTION SCALE
Abstract
To determine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Multidimensional Fear of Injection Scale (MFIS-TR). Study sample consisted of 224 students. MFIS-TR were used to collect data. The Davis technique was used for content validity. The overall content validity index of the scale was 0.91. Confirmatory factor analysis was employed to assess construct validity. Confirmatory Factor Analysis revealed that the 16-item MFIS did not demonstrate sufficient fit. Three items were removed from the scale, resulting in a 13-item scale that showed good fit with a four-factor structure. The factor loadings for all items were above 0.40. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was determined to be 0.88. MFIS-TR is a highly reliable measurement tool that can be used to assess individuals' fear of injections. The study was written based on the TRIPOD checklist.
