Eine deutsche Adaptation des ENRICHD Social Support Inventory (ESSI)

Teststatistische Überprüfung an kardialen Patienten

Published Online:March 29, 2011https://doi.org/10.1026/0012-1924/a000030

Abstract

Zusammenfassung. Zur Erfassung der wahrgenommenen emotionalen sozialen Unterstützung bei kardialen Patienten wird das ESSI-D (ENRICHD Social Support Inventory – Deutsch), eine deutsche Adaptation des englischen ESSI, vorgestellt. Mit einer Stichprobe von N = 1597 Patienten (22.7% Frauen), die sich einer Bypass-Operation unterzogen, wurden die psychometrischen Eigenschaften des ESSI-D überprüft. Cronbachs Alpha der Gesamtskala lag bei α = .89. Eine konfirmatorische Faktorenanalyse bestätigte die einfaktorielle Struktur der Skala. Korrelationen mit unterschiedlichen Kriteriumsvariablen wie Partnerstatus, soziale Funktionsfähigkeit, körperliche Funktion und Depressivität lieferten Hinweise für eine zufriedenstellende Konstruktvalidität. Das ESSI-D erweist sich für diese Patientengruppe als ein ökonomisches Instrument zur Erfassung der emotionalen sozialen Unterstützung mit guten psychometrischen Eigenschaften.


A German adaption of the ENRICHD Social Support Inventory: statistical results in patients with heart disease

Abstract. This paper presents an instrument for the assessment of perceived emotional social support in heart disease patients called the ESSI-D (ENRICHD Social Support Inventory – Deutsch), a German adaptation of the English ESSI. Psychometric properties of the ESSI-D were examined using a sample of N = 1,597 patients (22.7% women) undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. Cronbach’s alpha for the total sample was α = .89. A confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the unidimensional structure of this scale. Correlations with different criterion variables, such as partner status, social functioning, physical functioning, and depression, provided evidence for the construct validity of the scale. The ESSI-D is an economic instrument for the assessment of emotional social support with good psychometric properties.
