Abstract

To assess the construct validity and reliability of the Portuguese version of the European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care questionnaire. We applied the Portuguese version of the European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care to 392 users of 20 Family Health Units from the North of Portugal. The validity of the construct was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis, with the Principal Axis Factoring method, by orthogonal rotation (varimax procedure), by the Kaiser normalization criteria (eigenvalue ≥ 1). The factorability of the data matrix was verified by the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin and Bartlett's sphericity test. We estimated the reliability by the indicator of internal consistency Cronbach's alpha. To analyze the correlations between satisfaction and loyalty, we used the Pearson correlations. The predictor effect of satisfaction on loyalty was analyzed by simple linear regression. Satisfaction presented five robust and well individualized dimensions - medical care, nursing care, clinical secretariat services, accessibility, and organization of services - with alpha values between 0.86 and 0.97, good levels of internal consistency. The loyalty showed alpha value of 0.72, considered a reasonable internal consistency. The satisfaction was predictive of loyalty. The Portuguese European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care questionnaire is a robust and reliable instrument to measure the satisfaction and loyalty of users of the Family Health Units. Avaliar a validade de construto e fiabilidade da versão portuguesa do questionário European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care. Foi aplicada a versão portuguesa do European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care a 392 utentes de 20 Unidades de Saúde Familiar do norte de Portugal. A validade do construto foi avaliada por análise fatorial exploratória, método Factoração de Eixo Principal, por meio da rotação ortogonal (procedimento varimax), pelo critério de normalização de Kaiser (valor próprio ≥ 1). A fatoriabilidade da matriz dos dados foi verificada por meio do Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin e do teste de esfericidade de Bartlett. A fiabilidade foi estimada pelo indicador de consistência interna alfa de Cronbach. Para analisar as correlações entre a satisfação e a lealdade, utilizou-se as correlações de Pearson. O efeito preditor da satisfação na lealdade foi analisado por meio de regressão linear simples. A satisfação apresentou cinco dimensões robustas e bem individualizadas - cuidados médicos, cuidados de enfermagem, serviços de secretariado clínico, acessibilidade e organização dos serviços - com valores de alfa entre 0,86 e 0,97, bons níveis de consistência interna. A lealdade apresentou valor de alfa de 0,72, considerada consistência interna razoável. A satisfação foi preditora da lealdade. O questionário European Task Force on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care português é um instrumento robusto e fiável para medir a satisfação e lealdade dos utentes das Unidades de Saúde Familiar.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 November 2016.
All research outputs
#16,046,765
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Revista de Saúde Pública
#548
of 1,139 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#194,132
of 329,203 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Revista de Saúde Pública
#3
of 9 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,139 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.7. This one is in the 47th percentile – i.e., 47% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 329,203 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 9 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 6 of them.
