Abstract

Objective

This study aims to culturally adapt the ‘Motivation and Attitudes Towards Changing Health (MATCH)’ scale into Turkish and assess its reliability and validity within the Turkish population.

Methods

The Turkish version of the MATCH questionnaire, designed to gauge patient motivation for initiating or sustaining behaviour changes, was created through translation and adaptation. A total of 305 patients diagnosed with chronic illnesses completed the questionnaire and scale to evaluate its validity and reliability.

Results

The Turkish version of MATCH demonstrated strong internal consistency and reliability. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the entire scale was 0.737, with subdimensions ranging between 0.69 and 0.75. Notably, no item displayed a total correlation value below 0.40. Furthermore, test–retest analysis indicated high intraclass correlation coefficients. Consequently, no items were removed due to their consistently high reliability values among all nine items.

Conclusion

The Turkish-adapted MATCH scale proves to be a valid and reliable instrument for assessing motivational status within the Turkish population.

土耳其语版健康改变动机与态度量表的信度与效度研究。

目的：本研究旨在将“改变健康的动机和态度（MATCH）”量表融入土耳其文化，并评估其在土耳其人群中的信度和效度。方法：土耳其语版MATCH问卷，旨在衡量患者启动或维持行为改变的动机，通过翻译和适应创建。共有305名慢性疾病患者完成了问卷和量表，以评估其效度和信度。结果：土耳其版MATCH具有较强的内部一致性和可靠性。整个量表的Cronbach's alpha系数为0.737，子维度范围为0.69 ~ 0.75。值得注意的是，没有项目显示的总相关值低于0.40。此外，重测分析表明，班级内相关系数较高。因此，没有项目因其在所有九个项目中始终具有高可靠性值而被删除。结论：土耳其适应MATCH量表被证明是评估土耳其人口动机状态的有效和可靠的工具。
