Abstract:
Objective In this study, we aimed to translate and revise the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities( SDSCA) and the Confidence In Diabetes Self-care( CIDS) scales, to test the reliability and validity of the two scales in Chinese adult type 1 diabetes( T1D) patients. Methods In the first step, Chinese versions( C-SDSCA and C-CIDS) were developed conceptually equivalent to the English versions. And the investigation was conducted in 100 patients from Guangdong T1D Translational Medicine Study. 15 of them were randomly chosen to be retested 4 weeks later. Cronbach's α were used to assess reliability, and factor analysis to its validity. The relationship between scores of C-SDSCA and C-CIDS were analyzed using Spearman correlation analysis. Results The overall Cronbach's α of C-SDSCA was 0.72 and the retest reliability was 0.95( sub-scale:0.67-1.00) . 4 common factors were extracted by factor analysis, and the cumulative contribution was 87.39%. As for C-CIDS, the general Cronbach's α was 0.84 and the retest reliability was 0. 70 ( sub-scale: 0. 49-0. 86 ) . 6 common factors were extracted and the cumulative contribution was 75.41%. The score of the two scales was positively related(r=0.61, P<0.01). Conclusion The revised C-CIDS and C-SDSCA scales turn out to have good reliability and validity, and can be used as instruments to assess diabetes self-management efficacy and self-care activities of Chinese adult T1D patients.
