目前用于评估健康行为的一般健康信念措施并未涵盖拉丁裔中存在的全部健康信念。本研究的目的是开发一种可靠且有效的拉丁裔健康信念衡量标准，即文化健康归因问卷 (CHAQ)。在两个拥有大量拉丁裔人口的大都市区招募了 340 名参与者。探索性因子分析揭示了 2 个高度可解释的 12 项分量表：公平归因量表和行为环境归因量表。对分量表和文化适应测量之间关系的检查提供了结构有效性的证据。此外，CHAQ 对医疗保健行为的预测也表明了初始标准的有效性。
Current general health belief measures that are used to assess health behaviors do not capture the full range of health beliefs present among Latinos. The purpose of this study was to develop a reliable and valid measure of Latino health beliefs, the Cultural Health Attributions Questionnaire (CHAQ). Three hundred forty participants were recruited in 2 metropolitan areas with large Latino populations. Exploratory factor analysis revealed 2 highly interpretable 12-item subscales: the Equity Attribution and the Behavioral-Environmental Attribution scales. Examination of the relationships between the subscales and measures of acculturation provided evidence of construct validity. Moreover, the prediction of health care behavior by the CHAQ also indicated initial criterion validity.
