MENOPAUSE-SPECIFIC QUALITY OF LIFE SCALE: RE-REVIEW ANALYSIS

Öz

It is important to evaluate the quality of life with a measurement tool that evaluates the symptoms specific to menopause in order to determine the current situation in order for women to spend the menopause period in a healthier and better quality. The sample criteria of the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Scale have expanded over time and the scale needs to be revised due to differences in scoring. This study aimed to re-examine its validity and reliability in a larger sample. This study was planned in methodological and descriptive design. The study, which was conducted between November 2022 and February 2023, included 392 women who underwent menopause surgically or naturally, during the transition to menopause and in the postmenopausal period. The data of the study were collected with the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Scale and the Participant Demoghraphic Form. Cronbach alpha of the sub-dimensions of the scale used in the study; vasomotor domain was 0.848, psychosocial domain was 0.892, physical domain was 0.934, and sexual domain was 0.868, and the overall scale reliability coefficient was 0.961. The total item correlation of the scale was found to range between 0.472 and 0.733. It was found that there was no statistically significant difference in the test-retest evaluation (p>0.050) and there was a very significant correlation between the two measurements (p<0.001). As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis, the scale was found to be compatible with the twenty-nine-item and four-factor structure. The Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Scale is a valid and reliable scale that evaluates the menopause-specific quality of life of women.
