Abstract:
Objective:To develop the Puerperal Delivery Trauma Perception Scale and test its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the theory of unpleasant symptoms and combining literature review, semi-structured interview, and group discussion, an item pool was created. The initial version of the scale was formed through Delphi expert consultation and pre-investigation. A convenience sampling method was used to select 304 puerperal women from seven Grade-A tertiary hospitals in Wuhan for reliability and validity testing of the scale in January and February 2024.Results:The Puerperal Delivery Trauma Perception Scale includes seven dimensions and 34 items. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.929, the split-half reliability was 0.874, and the test-retest reliability was 0.932. Exploratory factor analysis extracted seven common factors, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 71.221%.Conclusions:The Puerperal Delivery Trauma Perception Scale has good reliability and validity and can be used to assess the trauma perception of puerperal women in China.
