摘要
Background:A relevant questionnaire that evaluates disease awareness of patients with re-mitted schizophrenia is lacking in China.Objective:The purpose of the current study was to develop a questionnaire suitable for eval-uating the disease knowledge-attitude-practice awareness on the part of patients with remitted schizophrenia,thus providing a reliable tool for evaluating patient knowledge of the disease and self-management ability.Methods:To establish a theoretical framework,the literature was reviewed,experts were con-sulted,a semi-structured interview was conducted,and a questionnaire survey was administered to prepare a questionnaire for disease knowledge-attitude-practice awareness on the part of patients with remitted schizophrenia.Results:Exploratory factor analysis showed that the questionnaire consists of four dimen-sions:etiology awareness;risk factor awareness;treatment awareness;and rehabilitation aware-ness.The four dimensions account for 56.6%of the total variability.Confirmatory factor anal-ysis showed that the fitting indices for the structural equation model are as follows:df=1.187;GFI=0.877;AGFI=0.856;and RMSEA=0.030.The total Cronbach a factor for the questionnaire was 0.878.The Cronbach a for each dimension was 0.59-0.81.Conclusion:The questionnaire for disease knowledge-attitude-practice awareness on the part of patients with remitted schizophrenia has better reliability and validity.
