Publication Open Access Transcultural adaptation and theoretical models validation of the Spanish version of the Self-Care of Diabetes Inventory(Frontiers Media, 2024-09-10) Martínez Tofé, Jesús; Ausili, Davide; Soto Ruiz, María Nelia; Santolalla-Arnedo, Iván; Durante, Ángela; Di Nitto, Marco; Lysanets, Yuliia; Ruiz de Viñaspre-Hernández, Regina; Tejada Garrido, Clara Isabel; Sánchez Barba, Mercedes; Gea-Caballero, Vicente; Juárez-Vela, Raúl; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground: for patients with diabetes mellitus, self-care is crucial because it prevents complications and helps preserve quality of life. Clinicians and researchers require effective tools for assessing self-care behaviors across various dimensions to identify individual needs and maximize resource allocation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Spanish version of the Self-Care of Diabetes Inventory (SCODI). Methods: two hundred eighteen participants with DMT1 and DMT2 who were recruited through convenience sampling from a university hospital participated in our cross-sectional study. After translation and cultural adaptation, the enrolled patients answered the questions. We performed an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) on each of the SCODI scales and Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed using our models which appropriate fit indices. Results: the original structure of the four-dimensions tool was confirmed. The overall consistency across the four scales was assessed by Cronbach's alpha: self-care maintenance (0.766), self-care monitoring (0.790), self-care management (0.771), and self-care confidence (0.936). The model fit yielded a chi-square index of 1.028 with 773 degrees of freedom. Confirmatory factor analysis showed a good fit, thereby affirming the reliability of the model. Conclusion: the internal consistency and reliability of the SCODI Spanish version are deemed adequate. This tool is appropriate when it is desired to evaluate the self-care practices of Spanish persons suffering from diabetes due to its good psychometric qualities.Publication Open Access Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the caregiver contribution to self-care of diabetes inventory (CC-SCODI)(MDPI, 2025-04-12) Martínez Tofé, Jesús; Santolalla-Arnedo, Iván; Gea-Caballero, Vicente; Durante, Ángela; Martínez-Sabater, Antonio; Sánchez Barba, Mercedes; Di Nitto, Marco; Sánchez-Conde, Pilar; Gónzalez-Fernández, Silvia; Ruiz de Viñaspre-Hernández, Regina; Juárez-Vela, Raúl; Soto Ruiz, María Nelia; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground: The Caregiver Contribution to Self-Care of Diabetes Inventory (CC-SCODI) is an instrument grounded in the middle-range theory of self-care of chronic illness. It is designed to measure how caregivers support individuals with diabetes mellitus in carrying out self-care activities. Effective tools are essential for clinicians and researchers to evaluate factors influencing self-care, including caregivers’ contributions. This study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the Spanish translation of the CC-SCODI. Methods: A total of 201 caregivers of individuals with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) were recruited for participation in this cross-sectional study. Participants were selected through convenience sampling at a university hospital. Before administration, the survey questions were translated and culturally adapted to ensure appropriateness for both patients and caregivers. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed on each of the CC-SCODI subscales using models fitted to the relevant indices. Results: The initial construction of the four-dimensional tool was verified. The internal consistency of the four subscales was assessed using Cronbach’s α to measure the caregiver contribution to patients’ self-care maintenance (α = 0.725), self-care monitoring (α = 0.728), self-care management (α = 0.729), and caregiver self-efficacy in contributing to patient self-care (α = 0.921). Model fit indices demonstrated a chi-square value of 1.028 with 773 degrees of freedom. CFA indicated an excellent model fit, confirming the reliability and validity of the proposed structure. Conclusions: The internal consistency and reliability of the Spanish version of the CC-SCODI were deemed adequate. Due to its strong psychometric properties, this instrument is considered appropriate for evaluating the contribution of caregivers to the self-care behaviors of Spanish-speaking individuals with diabetes.
