Transcultural validation, adaptation of quality of contraceptive counselling scale for the portuguese population
| Resumo: | Abstract Introduction: Contraceptive counselling provided to women promotes decision-making and adherence to a contraceptive. In order to be able to assess the quality of the advice provided, it is necessary to use instruments suitable for this purpose. Objective: To validate and culturally adapt the psychometric qualities of the 22-item Contraceptive Counseling Scale. Methodology: Quantitative study with 172 women who met the inclusion criteria. The model’s factorial validity and reliability were assessed with a confirmatory factor analysis and Cronbach’s Alpha. Results: The modified version of the QCC-PT, with three dimensions and 15 items, presents good adjustment values, (χ2 (87) = 174.756; p <0.001; n = 172; χ2 / df = 1.698; CFI = 0.959; TLI = 0.951; RMSEA =0.064, P [rmsea ≤ 0.05] > 0.10). Conclusion: The QCC-PT is a sensitive, reliable and valid instrument that can be used both in the practice of care and in research. |
