Abstract

Aims: This study aims to report on the development and validation of the Attitude of Nursing staff towards Oral healthcare for Care-dependent Older adults (ANOCO) questionnaire.

Methods: The development of the ANOCO questionnaire was performed in three stages between 2008 and 2019. In a first stage, domains related to oral healthcare attitudes were identified. Next, relevant statements per domain were formulated by a Delphi panel in two rounds, resulting in a questionnaire with 32 statements. In a final phase, this questionnaire was subjected to psychometric analysis, including an evaluation of the construct validity, an internal consistency analysis (Cronbachs alpha) and a principal component analysis.

Results: The questionnaire could significantly distinguish between known groups (dentists, nurses' aides, nursing students and nurses). Regarding internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha was 0.863 in the first sample (n = 361) and 0.843 in the second sample (n = 1051). Based on principal component analysis, 22 statements were retained. Four components with an eigenvalue of more than 1 explained 45% of the total variance.

Conclusion: The ANOCO-22 questionnaire consists of 22 statements and is a valid tool to assess the changes or differences in the attitude of nursing staff towards oral healthcare for care-dependent older adults.

护理人员对依赖护理的老年人口腔保健的态度（ANOCO）问卷：开发与验证。

目的：本研究旨在报告护理人员对依赖护理的老年人口腔保健的态度（ANOCO）问卷的开发和验证情况：ANOCO 问卷的开发在 2008 年至 2019 年期间分三个阶段进行。在第一阶段，确定了与口腔保健态度相关的领域。接下来，德尔菲小组分两轮制定了每个领域的相关陈述，最终形成了一份包含 32 个陈述的问卷。在最后阶段，对该问卷进行了心理测量分析，包括构建有效性评估、内部一致性分析（Cronbachs alpha）和主成分分析：结果：问卷能明显区分已知的群体（牙医、护士助理、护理专业学生和护士）。在内部一致性方面，第一个样本（361 人）的 Cronbach's alpha 为 0.863，第二个样本（1051 人）的 Cronbach's alpha 为 0.843。根据主成分分析，保留了 22 个陈述。四个特征值大于 1 的成分解释了总方差的 45%：ANOCO-22 问卷由 22 个陈述组成，是评估护理人员对依赖护理的老年人口腔保健态度的变化或差异的有效工具。
