本研究评估了HIV相关知识的简短自我报告测量，即18项HIV知识问卷（HIV- kq -18）的心理测量特性。低收入男性和女性（N = 1,019）对27个代表感兴趣领域的项目做出了回应。项目分析表明有18个项目，项目总相关性从。24到。57、被保留。进一步的分析表明，HIV-KQ-18在样品之间的内部一致性（alpha = 0.75 - 0.89），在几个间隔内的重测稳定性（rs = 0.76 - 0.94），以及与更长时间、先前验证的测量值的强相关性（rs = 0.93 - 0.97）。来自三个临床试验的数据表明，与未治疗的对照组相比，HIV-KQ-18检测到治疗参与者的知识增长。我们得出结论，HIV-KQ-18具有内部一致性、稳定性、对干预引起的变化敏感，适合低识字率人群使用。
This research evaluated the psychometric properties of a brief self-report measure of HIV-related knowledge, the 18-item HIV Knowledge Questionnaire (HIV-KQ-18). Low-income men and women (N = 1,019) responded to 27 items that represented the domain of interest. Item analyses indicated that 18 items, with item-total correlations ranging from .24 to .57, be retained. Additional analyses demonstrated the HIV-KQ-18's internal consistency across samples (alphas = .75-.89), test-retest stability across several intervals (rs =.76-.94), and strong associations with a much longer, previously validated measure (rs =.93-.97). Data from three clinical trials indicated that the HIV-KQ-18 detected knowledge gains in treated participants when compared to untreated controls. We conclude that the HIV-KQ-18 is internally consistent, stable, sensitive to the change resulting from intervention, and suitable for use with low-literacy populations.
