ABSTRACT This investigation examined psychometric properties of a patient–provider communication measure developed for adolescents/young adults receiving medication prescriptions. Two independent samples of participants completed the measure; Study 1 included measures for preliminary validity analyses, while Study 2 included measures of adherence and adherence barriers. In Study 1, exploratory factor analyses revealed a 15-item, 2-factor structure and supported preliminary validity. In Study 2, Total and Factor 1 (“Clarifying Rationale for Medication”) scores were associated with adherence, and Total and Factor 2 (“Encouraging Patient Adherence Behavior”) scores were associated with adherence barriers. Preliminary evidence supported the measure as useful for assessing patient-provider communication.

制定和初步验证患者报告的有关青少年处方药的医患沟通方式

摘要这项调查研究了为接受药物处方的青少年/年轻人开发的患者-提供者沟通措施的心理计量学特性。参与者的两个独立样本完成了这项措施；研究1包括初步有效性分析的量度，而研究2包括依从性和依从性障碍的量度。在研究1中，探索性因素分析显示15个项目，2个因素的结构并支持初步有效性。在研究2中，Total和Factor 1（“明确用药理由”）得分与依从性相关，Total和Factor 2（“鼓励患者坚持行为”）得分与依从性障碍相关。初步证据支持该措施可用于评估患者与提供者之间的沟通。
