| Research Abstract |
Objective
This study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of an evaluation scale for self-management behavior related to physical activity by coronary heart disease patients (ES-SMBPA-CHD).
Research Design and Methods
Outpatients with coronary heart disease (n = 76) completed a self-administered questionnaire supported by a semi-structured interview based on literature review. The content, factor, and concurrent validity and internal consistency and reproducibility of the scale were analyzed. Pearson's correlation coefficients for the ES-SMBPA-CHD and International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) subscale scores were calculated to evaluate the concurrent validity, and also the relationship between the ES-SMBPA-CHD and resting energy expenditure values (REE: measured by Portable Indirect Calorimeter <Metavine>) were investigated.
Results
The ES-SMBPA-CHD was divided into two parts, the first dealing with self-management behavior to enhance physical activity in daily life and the second with behavior to maintain the level of physical activity. Factor analysis showed that the first part comprised four factors and the second five. The ES-SMBPA-CHD correlated with the IPAQ subscales. Cronbach's α coefficient was between 0.71 and 0.90 and the intraclass test-retest correlation coefficient of the subscales was between 0.73 and 0.93. There was no evident relationship between resting energy expenditure and the ES-SMBPA-CHD
Conclusions
The ES-SMBPA-CHD is reasonably reliable and valid and we expect that will prove useful for the assessment of patients' self-management behavior and for individualized instruction.
