Validity and reliability of the Dutch version of the S3-NIV questionnaire to evaluate long-term noninvasive ventilation.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is an effective treatment for chronic respiratory failure (CRF). Patient-centered outcomes need to be evaluated regularly and the S³-NIV questionnaire seems an applicable tool. We translated this short, self-administered questionnaire into a Dutch version and tested its construct validity and reliability.

Methods

An observational study was conducted, including 127 stable long-term NIV users with CRF or complex sleep related breathing disorders due to different underlying diseases: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (25%), slowly progressive neuromuscular disorders (35%), rapidly progressive neuromuscular disorders (12%) and 'other disorders' (28%) including complex sleep apnea and obesity hypoventilation syndrome. Construct validity and reliability were tested.

Results

The Dutch version of the questionnaire was obtained after a translation and back-translation process. Internal consistency of the total score was good (Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.78) as well as for the 'respiratory symptoms' subdomain and the 'sleep and side effects' subdomain (Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.78 and 0.69, respectively). The reproducibility was excellent with an intraclass correlation of 0.89 (95% CI 0.87-0.93). Construct validity was good for the 'respiratory symptoms' subdomain.

Conclusion

The Dutch S³-NIV questionnaire is a reliable and valid tool to evaluate symptoms, sleep, and NIV related side effects in long-term NIV users.

Project description:BackgroundNowadays, digital gaming occupies a central position in the entertainment industry where it has developed into a cherished kind of entertainment in markets all over the world. In addition, it provides other sectors with various social and economic benefits. The Game Experience Questionnaire (GEQ) is a free, quantitative, and comprehensive self-report measure that was developed to assess the player game experience. Despite having been widely used by many research projects in the past, it has not been adapted into Arabic. Furthermore, several components of the scale proved problematic from a psychometric point of view. Therefore, a modified version of the scale is needed to measure the gaming experience of the Arab population.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to validate and examine the psychometrics of an adapted Arabic version of the GEQ in Tunisia.MethodsA total of 771 volunteer participants completed an online survey, which included an Arabic version of the GEQ, gaming data, and a sociodemographic questionnaire. Subjects were randomized in order to complete two phases of the study: exploratory and confirmatory. The exploratory data were acquired from 360 respondents whose mean age was 23.89 (SD 2.29) years. Out of 360 respondents, 111 (30.8%) were female and 249 (69.2%) were male. Confirmatory data were obtained from the remaining 411 subjects whose mean age was 21.94 (SD 1.80) years. Out of 411 subjects, 169 (41.1%) were female and 242 (58.9%) were male.ResultsAfter the elimination of two items, the exploratory and the confirmatory factor analyses provided an adequate factor structure of the Arabic version of the GEQ. In addition, the internal consistency coefficients suggested the reliability of the instrument. Significant differences were revealed for three subcomponents: flow by age (η2=0.013, P=.002), gender (η2=0.007, P=.02), and game type (η2=0.03, P<.001). For competence (η2=0.01, P=.03) and immersion (η2=0.02, P=.01), significant differences were highlighted by the type of game. The discriminant and convergent validities of the instrument were supported by calculating the average variance extracted (AVE) and comparing the square roots of the AVE values to the correlation coefficients, respectively.ConclusionsThe Arabic adapted version of the GEQ is valid and reliable and can be administered to measure the game experience in Arab countries.
