Abstract
Objective: To test the Turkish version of The Self-Efficacy for Home Exercise Programs Scale (SEHEPS-T) in patients with musculoskeletal diseases for validity and reliability.
Methods: The performance of the scale was evaluated with 122 patients with varying musculoskeletal diseases, and repeated to assess its test-retest reliability. The questionnaire applied included a Demographic and Socioeconomic Characteristics Form, SEHEPS-T, the Turkish version of the Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (EXSE), and the Turkish version of the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK). Exploratory Factor Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis were used to evaluate their validity and reliability.
Results: High internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = .974 ) and good test-retest reliability (ICC = .998 ) were demonstrated. SEHEPS-T was revealed to be strongly correlated with both the EXSE and the TSK. ( 𝜌 = .933, 𝜌 = .949, p = .000, respectively), indicating strong convergent validity.
Conclusions: SEHEPS-T was found to reliably measure the self-efficacy of musculoskeletal patients.
