Abstract

Brucellosis can resulting in long period of convalescence,incapacitation in humans,and abortions in livestock,reduce production and productivity in livestock breeding which consequently created many problems for the country. One of the most important ways to control disease is health education for involved groups. Each education tools must be weighed in terms of validity and reliability based on the established standards. The aim of present study included to evaluate content validity and reliability of the questionnaire which made by researcher based on HBM training for brucellosis control. The applied indicators in presents study were qualitative and quantitative validity,content validity ratio (CVR) and content validity index (CVI). Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach's alpha coefficient were used for analyzing of reliability in SPSS-21 software. According to the calculated item impact score,three questions received less than 1.5 score. Except two questions,other questions were received equal or greater than 0.75 points for content validity ratio. Intra-class correlation coefficient for the total scale was 0.923 and for different parts of questionnaires obtained in the range of 0.9 to 0.944. Cronbach's alpha of questionnaire indicated the reliability of 0.882 which for different parts of the questionnaire were ranged about 0.762 to 0.948.The applied method in present study can be considered as a valid and reliable tool for using in education and used to assess the level of awareness,knowledge and performance program to prevent brucellosis. In addition,the results indicated that statistical indicators is useful for determining the validity and reliability of questionnaire. © 2016,International Journal of Pharmacy and Technology.
