| description | Purpose: The aim of this methodological study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish “Hand Hygiene Belief Scale and Hand Hygiene Practices Inventory” which was developed to evaluate Hand Hygiene Belief and Practices.Material and Methods: The sample of this study consisted of 340 nursing students. The data collection procedure included a questionnaire based on the literature, and the Hand Hygiene Belief Scale and the Hand Hygiene Practices Inventory developed by Thea van de Mortel and studied by authors for Turkish validity and reliability. During the study, language equivalence, content validity, reliability and construct validity of the scale was performed. The data was assessed by using mean, standard deviation, Kendall's coefficient of concordance, Cronbach Alpha, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient for test-retest reliability coefficient and confirmatory factor analysis. Results: In the study, the Cronbach's Alpha value was determined as, 0.76 in the hand hygiene belief scale and 0.85 in the hand hygiene practices inventory. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient of the scale and inventory for test-retest reliability was 0.66 and 0.60. According to fit indexes of confirmatory factor analysis; it was found that two factors were not appropriate for the scale; but one factor were appropriate for the inventory.Conclusion: The adaptation of translated “Hand Hygiene Belief Scale and Hand Hygiene Practices Inventory” in Turkey is found to be reliable and valid to evaluate hand hygiene belief and practices. |
