Abstract
Objective
The aim of this study is to validate the Moroccan version of The Caregivers Oncology Quality of Life (CarGoQol) questionnaire to measure the caregiver’s quality of life of palliative cancer patients in Morocco.
Results
The psychometric properties of CarGoQoL were generally good. A Cronbachα coefficient of 0.82 was obtained indicating a good internal consistency except for the private life dimension (α = 0.14). A good reliability of the test re-test was also observed, with an item internal consistency of 0.9. Missing data and ceiling effect were low; some ceiling effects were observed for Relationship with healthcare (38.9%); correlations were confirmed between the different dimensions that corresponding to the same domain; significant association was identified for caregiver and patient characteristics.
