Abstract:
Objective:To localize the Oncofertility Barrier Scale and examine its reliability and validity, thereby providing an effective tool for assessing and measuring barriers encountered by healthcare professionals in oncofertility care.Methods:After obtaining authorization from the original scale author, the scale was translated following Brislin's translation model and underwent cultural adaptation and a pre-survey to develop and adjust the localized Chinese version of the Oncofertility Barrier Scale. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the Chinese version of the Oncofertility Barrier Scale among 210 healthcare professionals selected via convenience sampling from Yichang Central People's Hospital, Tongji Hospital affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science & Technology, and Taihe Hospital. The reliability and validity of the scale were analyzed.Results:The Chinese version of the Oncofertility Barrier Scale demonstrated an average scale-level content validity index of 0.97. Exploratory factor analysis extracted six common factors, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 69.415%. The final scale consisted of 26 items across five dimensions. The Cronbach α coefficient was 0.940, and the split-half reliability coefficient was 0.867. Conclusions:The Chinese version of the Oncofertility Barrier Scale exhibits good reliability and validity and can serve as an effective tool for evaluating factors hindering healthcare professionals in providing oncofertility care.
