About this study
Official title: The Turkish Validity-Reliability Study of the European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Scale-Caregivers Version (AKYÖDÖ-BV)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the translation, cross-cultural fit, and psychometric properties of the European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Questionnaire for Caregivers.
Read the detailed description
This research will be of descriptive type. The population of the study will be heart failure patients who applied to the University Hospital Cardiology clinic and polyclinic. The sample of the study will consist of patients who meet the research criteria and agree to participate in the study. The data collection tools of the study are the patient questionnaire (17 questions), the European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Scale for Caregivers (9 questions) and the Caregiver Contribution Scale in Heart Failure Self-Care, which was conducted by the researchers by scanning the literature.
English Turkish translations will be made before starting the research. Afterwards, expert opinion will be taken for the suitability of the scale items. Then, the Turkish scale items will be translated back into English and the linguist's opinion will be taken that the scale can be applied. Language and content validity will be done for the scale form. The scale items will be translated into Turkish and expert opinions will be taken. Then, the Turkish scale items will be translated back into English and the linguist's opinion will be taken that the scale can be applied. Language validity and content validity will be done in the study. Explanatory Factor Analysis will be applied for the validity of the questionnaire. Kaiser Meyer Olkin(KMO) Test, which measures the adequacy of sample size as antecedent tests, and Bartlett's Test For Sphericity will be used to test sphericity. Factor Analysis Principal Component Analysis Method will be applied.
