Özet

Aim: The aim was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the “Barriers, Attitudes, Confidence, and Knowledge Scale for Assessing Metabolic Health” (M-Back-Tr) to determine the barriers, attitudes, confidence, and knowledge status of psychiatry professionals in the assessing of metabolic syndrome. Methods: This methodological study was conducted with 304 psychiatric nurses who were working in public and private healthcare institutions between March and June 2023. Translation and back-translation were made into the Turkish language during the adaptation process and it was found that there was no semantic shift between the versions. While the validity of M-Back-Tr was tested with content validity, construct validity, and convergent validity, its internal reliability and Split-Half Test Reliability were examined for reliability. Results: The structure of M-Back-Tr, which consists of 4 dimensions (i.e., Barriers, Attitudes, Confidence, Knowledge) and 16 items, was confirmed in Turkish culture. This structure can explain 73 % of the variance in the related concept. The minimum score that can be taken from each sub-dimension is 4 and the maximum is 20. The Cronbach ? value of the sub-dimensions of the scale was found to be between 0.79 and 0.91. Conclusion: The study findings showed that the M-Back-Tr is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used in Turkish culture.
