Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the psychometric characteristics of the Chinese version of Cataldo Lung Can cer Stigma Scale (CLCSS). Methods Convenience sampling was used to recruit 775 lung cancer patients in a tertiary hospital and some anticancer groups in Beijing,and the Chinese version of CLCSS was used to perform measure-ment. Results The S-CVI/UA was 0.87,and S-CVI/Ave was 0.96. Construct validity consisted of EFA and CFA. Through EFA,the Chinese version of CLCSS included four dimensions which accounted for 55.248% of the accu-mulated variance. Through CFA,all the indicators were in adaptation standard range. The test-retest reliability for the Chinese version of CLCSS was 0.801(P<0.01). Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.932,and Cronbach's α coeffi-cients for four dimensions ranged from 0.799 to 0.922. Conclusion The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of CLCSS are satisfactory and the Chinese version of CLCSS can be used among Chinese lung cancer patients.
