本研究的目的是开发和验证一种工具，以衡量在肯尼亚基利菲癫痫患者（PWE）之间的感知耻辱。我们回顾了现有的衡量耻辱的量表，特别是癫痫的耻辱。我们进行了一项定性研究，以确定在基利菲与耻辱感有关的突出问题。主题的产生，和那些相关的耻辱被用来构建一个18个项目的耻辱量表。然后对673名PWE进行描述性横断面调查，以评估量表的信度和效度。内部一致性计算使用Cronbach的α和重测信度与组间相关系数。最终的量表共有15个条目，内部一致性（Cronbach's α = 0.91）和重测信度（r = 0.92）均较好。因子分析表明，量表是一维的，一个因素的解决方案解释45.8%的方差。Kilifi癫痫污名量表是一种文化上适当的污名测量方法，具有很强的心理测量特性。我们开发并验证了一个量表来衡量癫痫患者的耻辱感。（3）该量表为单因素分析，单因素解释方差的45.8%，具有较高的内部一致性和良好的重测信度。它可以适应和验证用于其他研究环境。
The aim of this study was to develop and validate a tool to measure perceived stigma among people with epilepsy (PWE) in Kilifi, Kenya. We reviewed existing scales that measured stigma, particularly of epilepsy. We conducted a qualitative study to determine salient concerns related to stigma in Kilifi. Themes were generated, and those related to stigma were used to construct an 18-item stigma scale. A descriptive cross-sectional survey was then conducted among 673 PWE to assess the reliability and validity of the scale. Internal consistency was calculated using Cronbach's alpha and test–retest reliability with an interclass correlation coefficient. The final scale had 15 items, which had high internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.91) and excellent test–retest reliability (r = 0.92). Factor analysis indicated that the scale was unidimensional with one factor solution explaining 45.8% of the variance. The Kilifi Stigma Scale for Epilepsy is a culturally appropriate measure of stigma with strong psychometric properties. ► We developed and validated a scale to measure perceived stigma in epilepsy. ► The scale was unidimensional: one factor solution explained 45.8% of the variance.► It had high internal consistency and excellent test-retest reliability. ► It can be adapted and validated for use in other research settings.
