Abstract
Researchers examined psychometric properties of the adapted Human Connection Scale (HCS) with persons experiencing homelessness (PEH). Participants (N = 103) completed the Human Connection Scale for People Experiencing Homelessness (HCS-PEH) after receiving a foot care intervention. A preliminary exploratory factor analysis demonstrated the emergence of three distinct factors (trust, caring, and respect) explaining 68.1% of total variance. A subsequent confirmatory factor analysis supported the theoretical construct underlying the HCH-PEH and internal consistency reliability was established. Future research should focus on testing human connection in comparison with diverse health outcomes such as quality of life and treatment adherence to chronic conditions.
