Özet
Purpose: Vaccine hesitation is a public health threat in Turkey and throughout the world. There is no scale validation inTurkish in this topic.This study sought to validate a Turkish version of the scale developed by Opel et al. in 2011 and revised in 2013, the “Parent Attitudes About Childhood Vaccines Survey”. Materials and methods: This was a translation and linguistic validation study conducted using a serial method. Language validation study was carried out using ’Serial method’ for scale developed by Opel DJ and his colleagues.The scale was translated, reviewed, retranslated, and reviewed for clarity and uniformity. Content validity was assessed using a modified Lawshe method. A content validity ratio and content validity index was calculated for each item according to the opinions expressed regarding the suitability of each scale item. Results: The scope validity ratio for all questions was above the critical content validity ratio of 0.455. The content validity index value of the scale was 0.630, and the content validity of the questions was statistically significant. Conclusions: The linguistic validation of the parental attitude scale regarding childhood vaccination and the statistically significant results of the scope validity tests indicate that the Turkish version is valid. Subsequent validity and reliability studies are expected to make the scale measuring parental attitudes about vaccine heed in Turkey.Thus, it is thought that it will contribute to the studies to be carried out on vaccine heed and struggle by working in a wider audience.
