translation. Internal consistence reliability and Construct validity with factor analysis were determined in 553 samples of elderly.
Results:
The 25-item Chinese version of the patient dignity inventory showed the Cronbach_s alpha was .97, indicating high internal
consistency reliability. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) showed .953 is adequate to analyzed factor analysis. The eigenvalues were
greater than 1 as the extraction factor, and two factors were extracted. In the Principal components method and eigenvalue> 1, the
cumulative explanatory variance was 71.18%. Each item in the subject of the structure, the factor loading greater than 0.5. It’s have
