Abstract
To test the Turkish version of The Self-Efficacy for Home Exercise Programs Scale (SEHEPS-T) in patients with musculoskeletal diseases for validity and reliability. The performance of the scale was evaluated with 122 patients with varying musculoskeletal diseases, and repeated to assess its test-retest reliability. The questionnaire applied included a Demographic and Socioeconomic Characteristics Form, SEHEPS-T, the Turkish version of the Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (EXSE), and the Turkish version of the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK). Exploratory Factor Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis were used to evaluate their validity and reliability. High internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = .974) and good test-retest reliability (ICC = .998) were demonstrated. SEHEPS-T was revealed to be strongly correlated with both the EXSE and the TSK (𝜌 = .933, 𝜌 = .949, P = .000, respectively), indicating strong convergent validity. SEHEPS-T was found to reliably measure the self-efficacy of musculoskeletal patients.
