Abstract:
AIMS:To validate and culturally adapt the Diabetes-specific Quality of Life Brief Clinical Inventory (DQOL-BCI) for the Iranian population. METHODS:After translation - back translation, content validity was assessed utilizing a panel of six experts. Based on a sample of 180 diabetic patients referred to two Diabetics Clinic Centers from September to May 2011 in Karaj, Iran, construct validity via detecting the factor structure, and convergent and discriminant validity were evaluated by scale-item correlations and known group analyses. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were assessed in sample of 30 patients by Cronbach's and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS:The IDQOL-BCI showed good content validity (CVI values>0.75 and CVR values>0.99), internal consistency (α=0.75) and test-retest reliability (ICC=0.81). A 3-factor solution was found. In addition, high values of item-scale correlations confirmed the convergence validity, and some subscales and total scores differentiate between groups defined by sex, disease duration, income levels, drug using status and physical activity demonstrated the discriminant validity. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings demonstrate the initial feasibility, reliability and validity of the Iranian version of the IDQOL-BCI as a measure of diabetic-specific QOL measure in Iranian patients.
