Opis:
This study aimed to validate the 25-item School Core Competence Scale (SCCS) of the National Kaohsiung University of Applied Sciences. Item analysis and exploratory factor analysis were utilized with 368 undergraduates and confirmatory factor analysis with another 384 undergraduates. The SCSS had eight subscales, including Communication and Expression, International Perspective, Humanity, Civics and Morals, Professional Knowledge and Skills, Integrative Learning, Passion and Anti-stress, and Self-discipline. Results indicated that the SCCS is a valid and reliable instrument among undergraduates. Particularly, women scored higher on Communication and Expression, Civics and Morals, Self-discipline as well as the total scale.

Opis:
Objectives The main aim has been to examine psychometric properties of STOP-Bang (snoring, tiredness, observed apnea, high blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), age, neck circumference, male gender) scoring model (Serbian translation), an obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) screening tool, in a sample of commercial drivers. Material and Methods After formal translation, validation was performed on a sample of bus and truck drivers evaluating test-retest reliability, construct and criterion validity. Overnight polysomnography or cardiorespiratory polygraphy were used for OSA diagnosis purposes. Results One hundred male participants, 24–62 years old, were included. STOP-Bang classified 69% as potential OSA patients. Polysomnography identified OSA in 57% of the sample. Test-retest reliability (Cohen’s κ = 0.89) was adequate. STOP-Bang score was significantly correlated to apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and OSA severity. Sensitivity was 100% for AHI ≥ 15, highest specificity was 53.5% (AHI ≥ 5). Conclusions STOP-Bang showed good measurement properties, supporting its further use in OSA screening of commercial drivers. Int J Occup Med Environ Health 2016;30(5):751–761

Opis:
Objective: The study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the IPOS-Pol for patient self-reporting. Method: Patients (>18 years of age) with advanced cancer admitted to three palliative care centers (inpatient units and home-based) were recruited to a multicenter, cross-sectional, observational, prospective study. Participants provided responses to the IPOS-Pol Patient version and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire – Core 15 – Palliative Care (EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL) Polish version at baseline (T1) and four to seven days later (T2). We assessed test–retest reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity of the tool. Results: One hundred and eighty patients were included. Test–retest reliability demonstrated no statistically significant differences in the average outcomes of the IPOS-Pol between T1 and T2 (27.2 ± 9.2 vs. 26.5 ± 8.7; p > 0.05). The intra-class correlation coefficient between T1 and T2 was r = 0.83 (p < 0.0001), the intra-class correlation coefficient for test–retest reliability of the IPOS-Pol items ranged from 0.63 to 0.84 (p < 0.0001), and the Cronbach's α coefficient for internal consistency was 0.773. The correlation coefficient between the IPOS-Pol and EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL total score was 0.79 (p < 0.001). Significance of results: The patient version of the Polish adaptation of IPOS is a valid and reliable outcome measure for assessing symptoms and concerns of individuals receiving palliative care, as well as the quality of care provided.

Opis:
Background: The level of health literacy possessed by an individual (functional, communicative, critical) determines their ability to effectively self-manage a chronic disease. The aim of the study was to assess the level and functional, communicative, and critical determinants of health literacy in the group of chronically ill older adults. Material and Methods: The study was conducted on a representative sample of chronically ill people (N = 400) aged ≥65 years, living in Poland. Three levels of health literacy were measured on the basis of the Functional, Communicative and Critical Health Literacy scale (FCCHL), employed in Polish social research for the first time. Results: The conducted research showed that the average health literacy score of the surveyed older adults, measured on the basis of the FCCHL scale, was 2.81±0.71 (M±SD), whereas for the functional subscale of health literacy it was 3.06±0.58 (M±SD), for communicative health literacy it was 2.82±0.86 (M±SD), and for critical health literacy – 2.71±0.92 (M±SD). In terms of functional health literacy, the surveyed seniors most frequently reported problems with reading health-related information, resulting from the use of inadequate font size in information leaflets and brochures. Questions included in the subscale representing communicative health literacy revealed that the majority of the respondents understood the provided information about diseases, nevertheless they were reluctant to share thoughts about their health with other people. Within the framework of critical health literacy, one-third of the respondents did not search for any additional information, trusting that the information obtained was accurate and reliable. Conclusions: The surveyed elderly people rated worse their level of communicative and critical health literacy compared to the functional level. As a consequence of the low level of communicative and critical health literacy of the surveyed older adults, a certain deficit in their self-managing a disease entity is forecast.

Opis:
Objective clinical assessments should include patient‑reported outcome measures. VascuQol is an established disease‑specific questionnaire assessing the quality of life in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Quality‑of‑life questionnaires require geographical localization and validation. The goal of this study was to validate the Polish version of the VascuQol: a patient‑reported health‑related quality‑of‑life (HRQoL) instrument specific for PAD. The linguistic validation of VascuQol followed Mapi Institute methodology. Clinical validation process compared VascuQol, EQ‑5D‑3L, and SF‑36 questionnaires in 100 patients with both intermittent claudication and critical limb‑threatening ischemia. Cronbach α coefficients for reliability, receiver operating characteristic curves for clinical discriminative performance, standardized response means for responsiveness, and Pearson correlations for construct validity were evaluated. Additionally, in a separate cohort of 58 patients with stable disease, the test-retest was characterized with intraclass correlation, Bland-Altman analysis, and Pearson correlation coefficients. VascuQol proved to perform better than SF‑36 and EQ‑5D‑3L. Cronbach \alpha coefficients showed good internal consistency (\alpha values >0.9 for all summary scores). All test-retest Pearson r values for VascuQol were above 0.70. The intraclass correlation of absolute agreement consistency exceeded 0.8. The Bland-Altman 95% limits of agreement were between 2.72 and 4.87. There were strong and moderate correlations for total scores in all domains between VascuQol and SF‑36, and for most of the domains between VascuQol and EQ‑5D‑3L. The Polish version of VascuQol is a sensitive, accurate, and reliable tool for assessing HRQoL in patients with PAD.

Opis:
Objectives Organizational justice is an important predictor of employees’ well-being and job performance. Colquitt’s Organizational Justice Measure (OJM) was designed to assess four aspects of justice – distributive, procedural, interpersonal and informational. The lack of a Polish version of the tool, however, has precluded its application in Poland. The objective of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the OJM in a Polish sample. Material and methods The validating study was conducted on 2 participant samples (N = 209 and N = 659), employed in public and private companies. Both the exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (EFA, CFA) as well as the estimation of internal consistency with Cronbach’s α method were conducted. Predictive validity was assessed by correlating organizational justice with job-related factors and outcomes, including job resources and counterproductive work behavior. Results The EFA and CFA supported a 4-dimension model of the OJM Polish version. This model indicated a better fit to data than the alternatively tested 1-factor, 2-factor and 3-factor models. The internal consistency of the scales was satisfactory, ranging 0.81–0.93 for various subscales. As expected, the overall organizational justice and the four subscales correlated positively with job resources and negatively with counterproductive work behavior. Conclusions The Polish version of OJM has satisfactory psychometric properties and may be useful in assessing organizational justice in a Polish setting.

Opis:
Populację w wieku produkcyjnym w Polsce charakteryzuje wysoka częstość używania tytoniu. Obecny poziom kontroli tytoniu w Polsce osiągnięto poprzez działania legislacyjne i interwencje populacyjne. W Polsce nie ma jednoznacznych wyników badań potwierdzających dostateczny udział profesjonalistów medycznych w diagnozowaniu zespołu uzależnienia od tytoniu (ZUT) i stosowaniu krótkiej interwencji 5A (ask, advice, assess, assist, arrange follow-up – pytaj, poradź, oceń, pomóż, wyznacz kolejną wizytę). Nie ma też rozwiązań systemowych regulujących nadzór merytoryczny, opiekę specjalistyczną, akredytowany system szkoleń i pracę ośrodków referencyjnych. Eksperci rekomendują do stosowania w praktyce klinicznej i badawczej narzędzia do diagnozowania ZUT oraz gotowości i motywacji do zaprzestania używania tytoniu, utworzone ponad 30 lat temu, które nie spełniają współczesnych kryteriów uzależnienia. W niniejszej pracy przedstawiono inne narzędzia niż dotąd rekomendowane – testy stworzone w pierwszej dekadzie XXI w. (w tym Skalę Uzależnienia od Papierosów i Skalę Syndromu Uzależnienia od Nikotyny), które odzwierciedlają współczesne rozumienie uzależnienia. W literaturze przedmiotu w zakresie motywowania do zmiany zachowania zdrowotnego dominuje podejście stosowane w wywiadzie motywującym Millera i Rollnicka, skoncentrowane na osobie palącej i jej motywacji wewnętrznej. Na zasadach wywiadu motywującego opiera się krótka interwencja motywująca – 5R (relevance, risks, rewards, roadblocks, repetition – trafność, ryzyko, nagrody, bariery, powtórzenie), adresowana do osób pozbawionych motywacji do rzucenia palenia, rekomendowana przez Światową Organizację Zdrowia. W Polsce należy podjąć badania nad wdrożeniem nowych narzędzi diagnostycznych, zaktualizować niektóre obecnie obowiązujące wytyczne, dążyć do wzmocnienia roli podstawowej opieki zdrowotnej w leczeniu ZUT oraz włączyć zasady wywiadu motywującego i krótkiej interwencji 5R do programu akredytowanych szkoleń z zakresu rozpoznawania i leczenia ZUT.

High rates of tobacco use is still observed in working-age population in Poland. The present level of the state tobacco control has been achieved through adopting legal regulations and population-based interventions. In Poland a sufficient contribution of health professionals to the diagnosis of the tobacco-addition syndrome (TAS) and the application of the 5A’s (ask, advice, assess, assist, arrange follow-up) brief intervention, has not been confirmed by explicit research results. Systemic solutions of the health care system of the professional control, specialist health care, health professional trainings and reference centres have not as yet been elaborated. The tools for diagnosing tobacco dependence and motivation to quit smoking, developed over 30 years ago and recommended by experts to be used in clinical and research practice, have not met the current addiction criteria. In this paper other tools than those previously recommended − tests developed in the first decade of the 21st century (including Cigarette Dependence Scale and Nicotine Dependence Syndrome Scale), reflecting modern concepts of nicotine dependence are presented. In the literature on the readiness/motivation to change health behaviors, a new approach dominates. The motivational interviewing (MI) by Miller and Rollnick concentrates on a smoking person and his or her internal motivation. Motivational interviewing is recommended by the World Health Organization as a 5R’s (relevance, risks, rewards, roadblocks, repetition) brief motivational advice, addressed to tobacco users who are unwilling to make a quit attempt. In Poland new research studies on the implementation of new diagnostic tools and updating of binding guidelines should be undertaken, to strengthen primary health care in treating tobacco dependence, and to incorporate MI and 5R’s into trainings in TAS diagnosing and treating addressed to health professionals.
