Abstract:
Objective:To translate the simplified version of the Metamemory in Adulthood (MIA) Scale, and test its reliability and validity.Methods:The simplified Beaton 6-step method was used to translate and culturally adjust the simplified MIA Scale. From October 2018 to September 2019, 528 obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) patients treated in a general ClassⅢhospital were selected for investigation with the simplified Chinese version of the revised MIA Scale. Cronbach's α coefficient and Guttman split-half reliability coefficient were used to evaluate the reliability of the scale.Results:The final simplified Chinese version of the MIA Scale had 35 items including 7 factors, which were respectively memory achievement, memory emotion, memory strategy, memory task, memory control, memory capacity and memory change. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.901, and the Guttman split-half reliability coefficient was 0.917; the item-level content validity index ( I- CVI) ranged from 0.80 to 1.00, and the average scale-level content validity index ( S- CVI/ Ave) was 0.928. The explanation rate of the cumulative variance of the 7 factors was 65.209%. Conclusions:The simplified Chinese version of the MIA Scale has good reliability and validity, and can effectively assess the metamemory level of OSAS patients.
