AB  - Diabetes self-care activities is an important aspect for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus 
      (T2DM) patients. The aim of this study was to examine the construct validity of 
      the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) measure. This was a 
      cross-sectional study whereby T2DM patients were recruited from endocrine clinics 
      in hospitals. The patients gave their informed consent before the interview. The 
      SDSCA measure was used to gather information about the patients' diabetes 
      self-care. Internal consistency reliability was measured by the Cronbach's Alpha 
      value while the construct validity was measured by Confirmatory Factor Analysis. 
      The fit indices for both the four-factor and five-factor structures were high 
      (CFI >0.90 and GFI >0.90). The interconstruct correlations of the SDSCA scale was 
      found to be highest between general and specific diet. The constructs of the 
      SDSCA demonstrated adequate convergent validities. The SDSCA measure was found to 
      be a valid one.
