Abstract:
Objective To develop a Self-Management Demand Scale for infertile patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)suitable for domestic socio-cultural background,and to test its validity and reliability.Methods Based on the self-management model,the item pool of the scale was constructed through literature review,semi-structured interviews,and Delphi expert consultation.Using convenience sampling method,560 obese PCOS combined with infertility patients from a tertiary-level hospital in Wuhan City were selected for questionnaire survey from June to November 2023,and they were divided into 2 parts according to the time of survey for exploratory factor analysis and validation factor analysis.Results Finally,554 valid questionnaires were collected.The Self-Management Demand Scale for infertile patients with obese PCOS contains 3 dimensions and 37 entries.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 3 factors with the cumulative variance contribution rate of 78.785%.The results of the validation factor analysis showed a good model fit.The content validity indices at the scale entry level ranged from 0.830 to 1.000,and the content validity indices at the scale level were 0.920.The Cronbach's αcoefficients for the scale as a whole were 0.967,and those for the dimensions ranged from 0.890 to 0.971;the split-half reliabilities of the overall scale as a whole were 0.856 and the split-half reliabilities of the dimensions were 0.802~0.895.Conclusion The scale has ideal validity and reliability,which provided a scientific tool to measure accurately the self-management demands of the infertile patients with obese PCOS.
