要接触到非英语家庭、经济上的弱势群体以及疾病和伤害统计中比例不成比例的人,是一项具有挑战性的工作。这篇文章描述了用英语开发的问卷的制作过程,该问卷在文化上适合低收入、单语、墨西哥和墨西哥裔美国母亲。该问卷在健康信念模式的指导下,评估了母亲儿童时期受伤的健康信念,最初使用的是美国东部96%的讲英语的非洲裔美国人的样本。来自目标人群的两名研究助理与非西班牙裔双语调查员合作,重新设计了问卷的语言和表达方式,并收集了数据。60名单语拉丁裔母亲参加了这项研究,以确定42个项目的西班牙语母婴伤害健康信念问卷(MCIHB)的内部一致性。克朗巴赫的阿尔法系数从0.76(利益分量表)到0.90(后果分量表)。
Reaching non-English-speaking families, the economically disadvantaged, and those who are disproportionately represented in disease and injury statistics is challenging. This article describes the process of making a questionnaire developed in English, culturally appropriate for low-income, monolingual, Mexican and Mexican American mothers. The questionnaire, guided by the Health Belief Model, assesses maternal childhood injury health beliefs and was originally used with a 96% African American, English-speaking sample in the Eastern United States. Two research assistants from the target population worked with the non-Hispanic, bilingual investigator to redesign the questionnaire's language and presentation and to collect data. Sixty monolingual Latina mothers participated in the study to determine the internal consistency of the 42 item Spanish language Maternal Childhood Injury Health Belief Questionnaire (MCIHB). Cronbachs alpha coefficients ranged from .76 (Benefits subscale) to .90 (Consequences subscale).
