目的将经过验证的测量工具青少年1型糖尿病自我管理量表翻译成中文，并检验中文版的心理测量学特性。背景虽然在过去的20年里，关于1型糖尿病自我管理的研究越来越多，但很少有中文版的健康相关工具可用于1型糖尿病青年。研究设计采用两阶段设计，包括工具翻译和心理测量学测试。方法从2008年10月至2009年4月，采用翻译效度指数法，分前译、后译、多轮比较、小组讨论、达成共识3个步骤进行翻译。采用Schilling青少年1型糖尿病自我管理量表对2009年6月至2009年8月间136名1型糖尿病青少年进行心理测量学研究。结果中文版的内部一致性和信度检验表明，中文版的一致性和时间稳定性较好。结构效度和标准相关效度的证据是通过子量表与糖尿病依从性和生活质量以及血红蛋白A1c的相关性获得的。假设检验的结果也支持结构效度。结论青少年1型糖尿病自我管理量表的中文版是合理的，有助于跨文化研究，同时也使护士能够监测和提高中国青少年1型糖尿病患者的糖尿病自我管理。
Aim To translate the validated measure, Self-Management of Type 1 Diabetes in Adolescents, into the Mandarin Chinese language and to test the psychometric properties of the Chinese version. Background Although research on self-management of Type 1 diabetes has been increasing over the past 20years, few health-related instruments have been available in the Chinese language for youth with Type 1 diabetes. Design A two-phase design was used in this study, including instrument translation and psychometric testing. Methods The instrument translation, from October 2008April 2009, included three steps: forward translation, back translation, and comparison of versions via Translation Validity Index with multiple rounds, group discussion, and achievement of consensus at each step. Psychometric properties of the Chinese version Schilling's Self-Management of Type 1 Diabetes for Adolescents scale was assessed in a convenience sample of 136 Chinese youth (ages 819) with Type 1 diabetes between June 2009August 2009. Results The internal consistency and testretest reliabilities indicated generally good consistency and temporal stability of the Chinese version. Evidence of construct validity and criterion-related validity was obtained via correlations of subscales with established measures of diabetes adherence and quality of life and also with haemoglobin A1c. Results from hypothesis testing also supported construct validity. Conclusion The Chinese version of Self-Management of Type 1 Diabetes for Adolescents scale is sound and will facilitate cross-cultural studies, while also enabling nurses to monitor and enhance the diabetes self-management of Chinese youth with Type 1 diabetes.
