TI  - Adaption, translation and validation of the Diabetes Mellitus in the Offspring 
      Questionnaire (DMOQ): The Malay version.
PG  - 16-24
AB  - BACKGROUND: The Diabetes Mellitus in the Offspring Questionnaire (DMOQ) assesses 
      the perceptions of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients on the risk of their 
      offspring developing T2DM and the possibility of intervention to reduce this 
      risk. It has 34 items framed within seven domains. This study aimed to adapt, 
      translate and validate the DMOQ from English into the Malay language. METHODS: 
      This was a cross-sectional validation study among 159 T2DM patients attending a 
      public primary care clinic in Selangor. The DMOQ English version underwent 
      adaptation, translation, face validation and field testing to produce the Malay 
      version. Psychometric analysis was performed using Exploratory Factor Analysis, 
      internal consistency and testretest reliability. RESULTS: The DMOQ domains were 
      conceptually equivalent between English and Malay language. A total of 13 items 
      and two domains were removed during the validation process (three items during 
      the content validation, three items due to poor factor loadings, five items as 
      they loaded onto two domains which were not interpretable, one item as it did not 
      fit conceptually into the factor it loaded onto and one openended question as it 
      did not fit into the retained domains). Therefore, the final DMOQ Malay version 
      consisted of 21- items within five domains. The Cronbach alpha was 0.714 and the 
      intraclass-correlation coefficient was 0.868. CONCLUSION: The DMOQ Malay version 
      is a valid and reliable tool which is consistent over time. It can be used to 
      examine the perception of T2DM patients towards the risk of their offspring 
      developing diabetes and possibility of intervention in Malay-speaking patients.
