Methods: After permission, the questionnaire was translated. Then face validity, content validity, concurrent validity and criterion validity were assessed. In order to evaluate the construct validity, known-groups comparison (patients with and without smoking) was performed. For criterion validity the Short Form 36 (SF-36) was used.

The criterion validity showed high and significant correlation between most the MIDAS and the SF-36 scores. The Cronbach’s alpha for the scale ranged from 0.74 to 0.887 and test-retest reliability (ICC) within 2 weeks, in all dimensions was greater than 0. 90. Conclusion: The findings suggest that the MIDAS is a valid and reliable disease-specific scale and can be considered for measuring health outcomes in research and clinical settings.http://payeshjournal.ir/article-1-236-en.htmltranslationvalidityreliabilityquality of lifemyocardial infarction dimensional assessment scalemyocardial infarction |
