A Short Knowledge Assessment Tool Is Valid and Acceptable for Adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

For people with inflammatory bowel disease, validated knowledge questionnaires are valuable to identify gaps in understanding and explore the impact on disease variables.

Aims

The aim of this study was to validate the short knowledge questionnaire Inflammatory Bowel Disease Knowledge Inventory Device 2, known as IBD-KID2, for use with adults with inflammatory bowel disease.

Methods

Concurrent validity of IBD-KID2 was assessed by comparing scores with those achieved on the Crohn's and Colitis Knowledge Score (CCKNOW). IBD-KID2 reliability was assessed with test-retest completion at two time points, generalizability assessed by comparing IBD-KID2 cohort scores at different recruitment centres, and acceptability assessed using participant survey.
