RESUMEN
Objective:To translate the English version of the Modified Atrial Fibrillation Information Overload Scale into Chinese,and to preliminarily test its reliability and validity.Methods:According to the Brislin translation model,the English version of the Modified Atrial Fibrillation Information Overload Scale was translated into Chinese, and then was back-translated and modified for cultural adaptation followed by the guidelines. From December 2021 to May 2022,200 patients with atrial fibrillation in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University and Qingdao Municipal Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University were included by a convenience sampling method for a questionnaire survey, in order to evaluate its reliability and validity.Results:The Chinese version of the Modified Information Atrial Fibrillation Overload Scale contained 8 items. The Cronbach α coefficient of the Chinese version of the Modified Atrial Fibrillation Information Overload Scale was 0.884. The test-retest reliability was 0.653. The split-half reliability was 0.794. The scale-content validity index was 0.98, and the item-content validity index ranged from 0.83 to 1.00. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the two-factor model fitted well, χ2/ df was 3.958, root mean square error was 0.026, comparative fit index was 0.936, goodness of fit index was 0.918, normal of fit index was 0.917, Tucker-Lewis index was 0.900, root mean square error of approximation was 0.08. Conclusions:The Chinese version of the Modified Atrial Fibrillation Information Overload Scale has good reliability and validity. It provides a reliable research tool for the patients to measure information overload in China, and provides a basis for health education for medical staff.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the relationships among perceived social constraints, social participation, as well as anxiety and depression in first stroke patients, and to further analyze the mediating effect of social participation on these variables.Methods:A total of 216 first stroke patients in the Department of Neurology of Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from April to December 2020 were recruited by convenience sampling and investigated by general information questionnaire, Social Constraints Scale (SCS), Chinese version of Impact on Participation and Autonomy Questionaire (IPA-C) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).Results:The total score of SCS, IPA-C, depression and anxiety were 33.49 ± 6.81, 43.42 ± 9.62, 8.05 ± 4.15 and 8.61 ± 2.59. Social constraints were positively correlated with social participation as well as anxiety ( r=0.644, 0.383, both P<0.05). Social constraints were positively correlated with social participation as well as depression ( r=0.482, 0.371, both P<0.05). The quality of social participation partially mediated the relationship between social constraints and anxiety (intermediary effect was 0.119), and also partially mediated the relationship between social constraints and depression (intermediary effect was 0.270). Conclusions:First stroke patients experience high level of social constraints, low quality of social participation and severe anxiety and depression. Social constraints can affect anxiety and depression through social participation. Medical staff should build a good environment to meet the needs of stroke patients of social participation, help patients to establish a correct psychological coping style, reduce patients' avoidance of social participation due to perceived constraints and exclusion, and thus promote the mental health of patients.
