Psychometric assessment of the Primary Care Behavioral Health Provider Adherence Questionnaire (PPAQ)
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2013
Publication Place: United States
Abstract: Adherence to protocol among behavioral health providers working in co-located, collaborative care or Primary Care Behavioral Health settings has rarely been assessed due to limited measurement options. Development of psychometrically sound measures of provider fidelity may improve the translation of these service delivery models into every day practice. One hundred seventy-three integrated behavioral health providers in VA primary care clinics responded to an online questionnaire to assess the reliability and validity of the Primary Care Behavioral Health Provider Adherence Questionnaire (PPAQ). Psychometric assessment resulted in a reliable 48-item measure with two subscales that specified essential and prohibited provider behaviors. The PPAQ demonstrated strong convergent and divergent validity when compared to another measure of health care integration. Known-group comparisons provided partial support for criterion validity. The PPAQ is a reliable and valid self-report of behavioral health provider fidelity with implications for improving provider training, program monitoring, and clinical research.

Psychometric evaluation, using Rasch analysis, of the WHOQOL-BREF in heroin-dependent people undergoing methadone maintenance treatment: further item validation
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2014
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: The brief version of World Health Organization Quality of Life assessment (WHOQOL-BREF), a useful outcome measure for clinical decision making, has been evaluated using classical test theory (CTT) for psychometric properties on heroin-dependent patients. However, CTT has a major disadvantage of invalid summated score, and using Rasch models can overcome the shortcoming. The purpose of this study was using Rasch models to evaluate the psychometric properties of the WHOQOL-BREF for heroin-dependent patients, and the hypothesis was that each WHOQOL-BREF domain is unidimensional. METHODS: Two hundred thirty six participants (24 females, mean [SD] age = 38.07 [7.44] years, first used heroin age = 26.13 [6.32] years), with a diagnosis of opioid dependence, were recruited from a methadone maintenance treatment program. Each participant filled out the WHOQOL-BREF. Parallel analysis (PA) and Rasch rating scale models were used for statistical analyses. RESULTS: Based on the PA analyses, four domains of the WHOQOL-BREF were unidimensional. The Rasch analyses showed three negatively worded items (2 in Physical and 1 in Psychological) reported as misfits that may not contribute to the Physical and Psychological domains; one positively worded item in the Physical domain may be redundant. All values for the separation indices were above 2 except for the person separation index in the Physical domain (1.93). Category functioning and item independency of four WHOQOL-BREF domains were supported by the Rasch analyses, and there were 5 items showing the differential item function (DIF) for positive versus negative HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection. CONCLUSIONS: The WHOQOL-BREF is a valid outcome measure for assessing general quality of life for substance abusers in terms of physical, psychological, social, and environmental factors. It can also be used as a treatment outcome measure to evaluate the effect of treatments for substance abusers. However, the three misfit negatively worded items should be used with caution because the substance abuser may not fully understand their meaning. Future research may apply cognitive interviews to determine the cognitive functioning of substance abusers and their interpretation of negatively worded items.

Psychometric properties of the Chinese craving beliefs questionnaire for heroin abusers in methadone treatment
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2011
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: This paper reports the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of Craving Beliefs Questionnaire (CCBQ), an easy-to-administer assessment instrument of measurement of craving beliefs for heroin abusers. METHODS: Participants were 445 heroin abusers from four methadone clinics in Northern Taiwan. Fifty-one of the participants were tested twice within a two-week period at a different hospital to examine test-retest reliability. RESULTS: Three-factor solution using principal component analysis was identified in the CCBQ: will power, compulsive behavior, and negative coping, accounting for 54.6% of the variance. Internal consistency analysis indicated that the three factors have strong reliability, with Cronbach alphas ranging from .81 to .92. The test-retest ICC coefficient is .80. The test-retest coefficients for the subscales will power, compulsive behavior, and negative coping are .76, .51, and .64, respectively. Overall, the data show that the CCBQ has acceptable reliability and validity, demonstrating that it can be a research instrument for assessing heroin craving beliefs. CONCLUSIONS: The psychometric properties of the CCBQ seem promising for both research and clinical purposes, and the scale thus deserves further refinement and validation with heroin abusers.

Psychometric properties of the medical outcomes study: social support survey among methadone maintenance patients in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam: a validation study
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2018
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Social support plays a crucial role in the treatment and recovery process of patients engaging in methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). However, there is a paucity of research about social support among MMT patients, possibly due to a lack of appropriate measuring tools. This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Vietnamese version of the Medical Outcomes Study: Social Support Survey (MOS-SSS) among MMT patients. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey of 300 patients was conducted in a methadone clinic in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. MMT patients who agreed to participate in the study completed a face-to-face interview in a private room. The MOS-SSS was translated into Vietnamese using standard forward-backward process. Internal consistency was measured by Cronbach's alpha. The intra-class correlation coefficient was used to determine the test-retest reliability of the MOS-SSS in 75 participants two weeks after the first survey. Concurrent validity of the MOS-SSS was evaluated by correlations with the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) and the Perceived Stigma of Addiction Scale (PSAS). Construct validity was investigated by confirmatory factor analysis. RESULTS: The MOS-SSS had good internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha from 0.95 to 0.97 for the four subscales and 0.97 for the overall scale. The two-week test-retest reliability was at moderate level with intra-class correlation coefficients of 0.61-0.73 for the four subscales and 0.76 for the overall scale. Strong significant correlations between the MOS-SSS and the MSPSS (r = 0.77; p < 0.001) and the PSAS (r = - 0.76; p < 0.001) indicated good concurrent validity. Construct validity of the MOS-SSS was established since a final four-factor model fitted the data well with Comparative Fit Index (0.97), Tucker-Lewis Index (0.97), Standardized Root Mean Square Residual (0.03) and Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (0.068; 90% CI = 0.059-0.077). CONCLUSIONS: The MOS-SSS is a reliable and valid tool for measuring social support in Vietnamese MMT patients. Further studies among methadone patients at different stages of their treatment and among those from different areas of Vietnam are needed.

Psychometric properties of the World Health Organization Quality Of Life Assessment-Brief in methadone patients: a validation study in northern Taiwan
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2013
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Quality of life (QOL) is an important outcome measure in the treatment of heroin addiction. The Taiwan version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life assessment (WHOQOL-BREF [TW]) has been developed and studied in various groups, but not specifically in a population of injection drug users. The aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the WHOQOL-BREF (TW) in a sample of injection drug users undergoing methadone maintenance treatment. METHODS: A total of 553 participants were interviewed and completed the instrument. Item-response distributions, internal consistency, corrected item-domain correlation, criterion-related validity, and construct validity through confirmatory factor analysis were evaluated. RESULTS: The frequency distribution of the 4 domains of the WHOQOL-BREF (TW) showed no floor or ceiling effects. The instrument demonstrated adequate internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha coefficients were higher than 0.7 across the 4 domains) and all items had acceptable correlation with the corresponding domain scores (r = 0.32-0.73). Correlations (p < 0.01) of the 4 domains with the 2 benchmark items assessing overall QOL and general health were supportive of criterion-related validity. Confirmatory factor analysis yielded marginal goodness-of-fit between the 4-domain model and the sample data. CONCLUSIONS: The hypothesized WHOQOL-BREF measurement model was appropriate for the injection drug users after some adjustments. Despite different patterns found in the confirmatory factor analysis, the findings overall suggest that the WHOQOL-BREF (TW) is a reliable and valid measure of QOL among injection drug users and can be utilized in future treatment outcome studies. The factor structure provided by the study also helps to understand the QOL characteristics of the injection drug users in Taiwan. However, more research is needed to examine its test-retest reliability and sensitivity to changes due to treatment.

Psychometric validation of a multi-dimensional capability instrument for outcome measurement in mental health research (OxCAP-MH)
Type: Journal Article
Year: 2017
Publication Place: England
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are widely used in mental healthcare research for quality of life assessment but most fail to capture the breadth of health and non-health domains that can be impacted. We report the psychometric validation of a novel, multi-dimensional instrument based on Amartya Sen's capability approach intended for use as an outcome measure in mental health research. METHODS: The Oxford Capabilities Questionnaire for Mental Health (OxCAP-MH) is a 16-item self-complete capability measure that covers multiple domains of functioning and welfare. Data for validation of the instrument were collected through a national randomised controlled trial of community treatment orders for patients with psychosis. Complete OxCAP-MH data were available for 172 participants. Internal consistency was established with Cronbach's alpha; an interclass correlation coefficient was used to assess test-retest reliability in a sub-sample (N = 50) tested one week apart. Construct validity was established by comparing OxCAP-MH total scores with established instruments of illness severity and functioning: EuroQol (EQ-5D), Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) and Objective Social Outcomes Index (SIX). Sensitivity was established by calculating standard error of measurement using distributional methods. RESULTS: The OxCAP-MH showed good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha 0.79) and test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.86). Convergent validity was evidenced by strong correlations with the EQ-5D (VAS 0.52, p < .001) (Utility 0.45, p < .001), and divergent validity through more modest associations with the BPRS (-0.41, p < .001), GAF (0.24, p < .001) and SIX (0.12, p = ns). A change of 9.2 points on a 0-100 scale was found to be meaningful on statistical grounds. CONCLUSIONS: The OxCAP-MH has demonstrable reliability and construct validity and represents a promising multi-dimensional alternative to existing patient-reported outcome measures for quality of life used in mental health research.
