Abstract

Introduction: Elderly people’s right to privacy has been an important area of study especial- ly in geriatric nursing institutions. The present study aimed to develop a new scale, “Attitudes Towards the Privacy of the Elderly” (ATPE) to assess the attitudes of nursing home carers towards the privacy of the elderly. Materials and Method: Nursing home carers (n=156) from the southern regions of Turkey participated in the study. They were asked to fill in each item by rating on a five point Likert-type scale ranging from “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree”. A number of reliability and validity analyses such as internal consistency, test-retest reliability and factor analysis were conducted to examine ATPE’s psychometric properties. Results: Factor analysis revealed a two-factor structure with 16 items explaining 37% of the variance. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were found to be .77 and .53, respective- ly. Item total correlation was found to range from .35 to .77. Conclusion: The 16 item respondent-based scale is a valid and reliable instrument to evalu- ate attitudes towards the privacy of the elderly. It is suggested that further studies may illumi- nate the practical value of the scale in nursing home settings.

Elde edilen verilerle ‘Aç›mlay›c› Faktör Analizi’ yap›lm›fl, test-tekrar test kararl›l›¤› incelenmifl, iç tutarl›l›k ise Cronbach Alfa katsay›s› ile de¤erlendirilmifltir. Bulgular: Faktör analizi sonucunda toplam 16 maddeden oluflan ve varyans›n %37’sini aç›k- layan iki faktörlü bir yap› elde edilmifltir. ‹ç tutarl›l›k ve test-tekrar test güvenilirli¤i s›ras›yla .77 ve .53 olarak bulunmufltur. Madde-toplam korelasyonu .35 ile .77 aras›nda tespit edilmifltir.
