本研究的目的是评估阿拉伯文版的健康促进生活方式简介工具在约旦的有效性和可靠性，约旦的社会和文化与开发该工具的北美不同。该文书被翻译成阿拉伯文，回译，并进行试点测试，以确定文化敏感性。阿拉伯语版本，然后评价使用方便的样本950名成年人在约旦北方的一部分，使用主成分因子分析。因素的顺序并不完全相同，以前孤立的英语语言版本的心理测量评估。只有自我实现、健康责任和锻炼三个因素的结构与英文版相同。强制的，六个因素的解决方案，解释只有39.3%的方差的措施。总量表的α信度系数为0.89，各分量表的α信度系数范围为0.85 - 0.60。得出的结论是，阿拉伯文版的《促进健康的生活方式简介》初步显示了可靠性和有效性。建议进一步测试。
The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of an Arabic version of the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile instrument in Jordan, whose society and culture differ from that of North America, where the instrument was developed. The instrument was translated into Arabic, back-translated, and pilot tested to ascertain cultural sensitivity. The Arabic version was then evaluated using a convenience sample of 950 adults in the northern part of Jordan using a principal components factor analysis. The order of factors was not entirely identical to those isolated previously during the psychometric assessment of the English language version. Only the structure of three factors-self-actualization, health responsibility-and exercise were the same as those obtained in the English version. The forced, six factor solution explained only 39.3% of the variance in the measure. The alpha reliability coefficients were 0.89 for the total scale and ranged from 0.85 to 0.60 for the subscales. It was concluded that the Arabic version of the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile has demonstrated initial reliability and validity. Further testing is recommended.
