چکیده

مقدمه: هدف از مطالعه­ی حاضر بررسی خصوصیات روان­سنجی فرم C مقیاس چند وجهی منبع کنترل سلامت در جامعه­ی ایرانی است.روش کار: حدود 375 کارمند دانشگاه علوم پزشکی شیراز (160 مرد و 215 زن) با میانگین سنی 13/38 ± 5/8 (با دامنه سنی 21- 78) با روش نمونه­گیری تصادفی طبقه­ای مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند. کلیه آزمودنی­ها به ابزارهای پرسشنامه جایگاه مهار درونی- بیرونی (IPC) لونسون و فرم C مقیاس چند وجهی منبع کنترل سلامت پاسخ دادند. حدود %5 از آزمودنی­ها تحصیلات زیر دیپلم و %67 تحصیلات دانشگاهی داشتند و  از بین این افراد %65 متأهل بودند.نتایج: مطالعه­ی حاضر نشان داد که مقیاس چندوجهی منبع کنترل سلامت دارای پایایی قابل قبول با ضریب آلفای  85/0 و در مورد خرده_ مقیاس­ها ضریب بین 63/0 الی 79/0 بدست آمده است. در خصوص روایی ابزار، از روش­های روایی صوری، روایی همزمان و روایی سازه استفاده شده است. بر اساس روایی سازه، آزمون در فرم فارسی دارای 4 عامل است. در خصوص روایی همزمان، آزمون همبستگی قابل قبولی با پرسشنامه­ی جایگاه مهار درونی- بیرونی لونسون داشت.یافته­ها: با توجه به یافته­های این بررسی این فرم جهت اندازه­گیری منبع کنترل سلامت در جمعیت بزرگسال روایی و پایایی قابل قبولی دارد.

چکیده [English]

Background: The purpose of the current study is the investigation of the properties of Form C psychometrics from the Multi-dimensional Scale of the Locus of Health Control in Iranian community.
Methods: In order to study the psychometric properties of Form C from the ultidimensional Scale of the Locus of  of Health Control, about 375 employees of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences (160 males and 215 females) with a mean age of 38/13 ± 8/5 (range of 21- 78 years old) were randomly selected using stratified sampling method. All the participants responded to Lutsen Internal-External Control (IPC) questionnaire as well as Form C of the Multi-dimensional Scale of the Locus of Health. About 5% of the participants had high school education and 67% had university education among which 65% were married.
Results: Regarding instrument reliability, the results of this study show that the Multidimensional Scale of the Locus of Health Control (Form C) has a good reliability, since the alpha coefficient calculated in this study was 0/849 and in the subscale scales 0/63 to 0/79. In terms of instrumental validity, formal validity, coincidence, and structural validity were used. The results showed that the validity of the translated Persian version was very similar to the original form and results in western societies.
Conclusion: According to the findings of this review, this form of scale is good for measuring the health control source in the adult population.
