Abstract

Introduction

Fatalistic beliefs have a deleterious effect on the adoption of healthy behaviours and well-being of individuals. In health domain, there are tools in the literature to measure those beliefs in several cultures, but none are suitable for an African context, precisely in Cameroon.

Objective

This study aimed to validate the French-cultural version of the 20-item health fatalism scale of Shen et al. in a Cameroonian population.

Method

In a sample of 652 participants (331 women and 321 men) aged from 15 to 61 years, this scale was translated, adapted and its psychometric qualities assessed.

Results

Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses showed that in the Cameroonian context, a four-dimensional model with 18 items was more adjusted. The extracted factors were: luck, ineluctability of disease, pessimism and pre-determination.

Conclusion

The health fatalism scale French version can be used effectively to evaluate fatalistic beliefs in the African context precisely in Cameroon, in order to adapt community health interventions aimed at eradicating risky behaviours.

健康宿命论量表(ef - vf):健康宿命论量表的验证

宿命论信仰对个人健康行为和幸福感的养成有着有害的影响。在健康领域，文献中有一些工具可以衡量几种文化中的这些信念，但没有一种工具适合非洲背景，正是在喀麦隆。目的本研究旨在验证沈等人在喀麦隆人群中使用的20项健康宿命论量表的法国文化版本。方法对652名年龄在15岁至61岁之间的参与者（331名女性和321名男性）进行翻译、改编，并对其心理测量质量进行评估。结果探索性和验证性因素分析表明，在喀麦隆的背景下，包含18个项目的四维模型更容易调整。提取的因素包括：运气、疾病的不可避免性、悲观主义和预先决定。结论健康宿命论量表法语版可以有效地评估喀麦隆非洲背景下的宿命论信念，以调整旨在消除危险行为的社区卫生干预措施。
