“…CFA was a modeling technique to confirm whether a proposed factorial structure could manifest the correlation or covariance of observable variables 41. The factorial structure of the original English version of CADEQ-II was established through exploratory factor analysis (EFA) 20. EFA revealed a four-factor structure, which explained 62% of the total variance 20.…”

“…Also, it applies the “I do not know” option to avoid guessing 24. As a newly developed measurement, CADEQ-II has been validated in Canadian patients with CAD and has shown good reliability and validity 20. The Cronbach’s alpha was 0.91 for the whole questionnaire and was ranged from 0.65 to 0.77 for each domain.…”
ObjectivesIt is necessary to assess disease-related knowledge in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) for tailored patient education; however there is a lack of a well-validated measurement in China. The objective of this study was to translate and validate a Chinese version of the Coronary Artery Disease Education Questionnaire-II (CADEQ-II).MethodsThe Chinese version of CADEQ-II was translated and culturally adapted. Then, it was tested for psychometric properties through a convenient sampling. Content validity was examined based on a panel of five experts. The item difficulty index and item discrimination index were calculated to assess the item difficulty and item discrimination. Internal consistency reliability was measured with the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Criterion-related validity was established through comparing scores in patients with different education levels. Construct validity was assessed through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).ResultsThe Chinese version of the CADEQ-II was finalized after deleting three items and modifying two items from the original version. Three hundred and sixteen participants completed the whole questionnaire. Content validity index of the whole questionnaire was 0.87. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the overall questionnaire was 0.907. The significant difference of the knowledge scores among patients with different education levels supported criterion-related validity. CFA confirmed the proposed four-factorial structure of the questionnaire.ConclusionThe Chinese version of CADEQ-II had an acceptable reliability and validity among Chinese patients with CAD. It could be used to develop individualized health education for Chinese patients with CAD. Also, it could serve as a suitable outcome measurement to evaluate the effectiveness of education interventions related to CAD.

“…Knowledge was assessed pre-and post-CR using the coronary artery disease education questionnaire (CADE-QII) [41], which assesses patients' knowledge in 5 domains: their medical condition, risk factors, exercise, nutrition, and psychosocial risk (item stems shown in Table 3). Each of the 31 items has 4 response options, of which one is most correct (scored 3), one is somewhat accurate (scored 1), and two are incorrect (scored 0).…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
