    Validity And Reliability Of The Turkish Version Of The Patient On Hemodialysis Resilience Scale
    (Başkent Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi, 2024-05-16) Eler, Cigdem Oezdemir; Kav, Sultan
    IntroductionThe study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the hemodialysis resilience scale (PHRS) in the Turkish population.MethodsA cross-sectional methodologic study involved 136 hemodialysis patients at two dialysis centers affiliated with a foundation university in Turkey. The updated guidelines for the Intercultural Scale Adaptation Stages, Language, and Culture Adaptation were followed.ResultsCronbach's alpha of the PHRS-Tr was 0.94. A three-factor structure was extracted, namely "the pursuit of positive meaning in the present," "building the will to live through close human relationships," and "acceptance of hemodialysis as a part of daily life" explaining 66.82% of the total variance. Test-retest reliability was conducted with 50 patients within the sample 2 weeks after the first application. The correlation coefficient for test-retest reliability was r = 0.680.ConclusionThe study results indicate that the PHRS-Tr is a valid and reliable tool for assessing resilience status in Turkish hemodialysis patients.
