REIGADA, Carla; PAIS‐RIBEIRO, José Luís; NOVELLAS, Anna e GONCALVES, Edna. Development of an instrument to assess the capacity for families to provide home care: content validation process. Rev. Port. Sau. Pub. [online]. 2015, vol.33, n.2, pp.170-178. ISSN 0870-9025.
In palliative care it is important to promote the wellbeing. The aim of this study is to present the creation/validation process of the scale for Capacity to Care in Palliative Care (ECCP). 58 items were created and then discussed and measured by a group of experts and caregivers of PC, using the Content Validity Index and Cognitive Debriefing techniques. The peer‐test reached an agreement on 47 items, none of which obtained a value < 3. This study shows that the instrument is endowed with content validity, which allows us to conclude that it is a consistent instrument liable to be applied to the target population.
