ABSTRACT
Objective To test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Pregnancy Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale(P-ESES) among Chinese population. Methods The Chinese version of P-ESES was translated from the original one,back-translated and adjusted for cultural adaptation. The reliability and validity were tested among 274 eligible pregnant women recruited in one obstetric outpatient clinic from a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou using convenience sampling. Results The content validity index (CVI) of the Chinese version of P-ESES was 0.98. Factor analysis extracted three common factors,which explained 60.649% of the total variance,and each item had high fac-tor loading quantity(>0.4). The test-retest reliability was 0.531,and Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.804. Conclusion The Chinese version of the P-ESES has been proved to be reliable and valid. It is a valuable tool for evaluating exercise self-efficacy among pregnant women in mainland China.
