Abstract:
Objective:To develop a family-involved institutional care behavior scale for the elderly and provide a tool for assessing the status quo and level of long-term institutional care for the elderly involving the family.Methods:From December 2018 to July 2019, based on the theory of balance and responsibility sharing and the conceptual model of family participation, the dimensions and item pools of the family-involved institutional care behavior scale for the elderly were constructed through literature review, semi-structured interviews and expert group meetings. Totally 18 experts from 11 provinces and cities in China related to this field were selected, and the Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of consultations by correspondence. The active coefficient, authoritative coefficient, Kendall's W of experts, and the coefficient of variation, the importance score of items, the full score rate were calculated. Results:In the first and second rounds of consultations by correspondence, the positive coefficients of the experts were 90% and 100%; the authority coefficient was 0.925; and the Kendall's W were 0.160 and 0.287, respectively (both P<0.01) ; the coefficients of variation were 0.10-0.31 and 0.05-0.24; the importance score of items were 3.67-4.78 and 3.78-4.97. Finally, the family-involved institutional care behavior scale for the elderly including 6 dimensions and 35 items were constructed. Conclusions:The construction of the family-involved institutional care behavior scale for the elderly is reliable and robust, which can provide a reference for further developing the content of family participation in care institutions for the elderly and improving the quality of life in the elderly.
