In education for newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, it is important for patients to develop a deep understanding of having diabetes along with an attitude toward preparing for medical treatment. Moreover, an index is needed to evaluate whether patients receiving such education after diagnosis are properly prepared for life as a diabetes patient. This study was performed to develop a scale for evaluating recuperation attitude at the time of education for patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. Twenty-four items were created for the draft scale by referring to previous research and Herzberg’s motivation-hygiene theory, which was then administered to 174 patients with type 2 diabetes. Exploratory factor analysis yielded four factors with 16 items: undertaking recuperation as a diabetes patient (Factor 1), looking back on a poor diet and trying to fix it (Factor 2), trying to study diabetes comprehensively (Factor 3), doing what can be done now (Factor 4). The cumulative contribution of these factors before rotation was 65.58%, indicating good construct validity. Significant and positive correlations were found between this scale and the Self-Efficacy Scale for Diabetes Self-care and the Japanese Translated “The Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measure”; thus, the criterionrelated validity was secured. The average item-level content validity index (S-CVI/Ave) was 0.90, indicating good content validity. Finally, the internal consistency was secured with a Cronbach’s α coefficient of 0.86. Overall, the reliability and validity of this scale were confirmed. This scale can be used to evaluate recuperation attitude at the time of education for patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes.}, pages = {55--64}, title = {Development of a scale for evaluating recuperation attitude at the time of education for newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes}, volume = {43}, year = {2020} }
