| Summary: | <h3>Purpose</h3><p dir="ltr">The S19-HCPs tool evaluates the stigma towards healthcare providers working with patients with COVID-19.</p><h3>Materials and Methods</h3><p dir="ltr">The psychometric properties of the Arabic and English versions of the S19-HCPs were examined. A survey using the S19-HCPs scale was administered online. Two reliability analyses were used in this study to identify the extent to which S19-HCPs shows consistent results (internal consistency and test–retest reliability). The English version of the scale was piloted on 33 Jordanian and the Arabic version on 27 Iraqi participants.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The internal consistency of the English and Arabic S19-HCPs was satisfactory (α = 0.79, 0.74, respectively). Two-week test–retest correlations were all statistically significant (ICC = 0.91, 0.89, respectively).</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">The S19-HCPs is psychometrically robust and can be used in research assessing the stigma towards healthcare providers working with patients with COVID-19 in English and Arabic-speaking countries.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.2147/jmdh.s321498" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.2147/jmdh.s321498</a></p> |
