      Measure Knowledge Among Diabetes and Prediabetes Patients Attending Cardiac 
      Rehabilitation Programs.

AB  - PURPOSE: Knowledge assessment tools are highly useful in clinical practice, as 
      they help health care teams to customize education and clinical care plans based 
      on the needs of patients. The objective of this study was to develop and validate 
      the DiAbeTes Education Questionnaire (DATE-Q) to measure knowledge among diabetes 
      and prediabetes patients attending cardiac rehabilitation (CR). METHODS: Based on 
      patient information needs, other validated tools and diabetes education standards 
      and current practices, experts developed 20 items to comprise the first version 
      of the DATE-Q. To establish content validity, they were reviewed by an expert 
      panel (n = 12) and patients. Refined items were psychometrically tested in 84 
      diabetes and prediabetes patients attending CR. The internal consistency was 
      assessed via regularized factor analysis and Cronbach alpha, and criterion validity 
      with regard to patient education and family income. For interpretability 
      analysis, the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was estimated using 
      distribution- and anchor-based methods. RESULTS: All items were appropriate for 
      administration in this population according to experts and patients. Three 
      factors were extracted and were generally internally consistent and well defined 
      by the items. Criterion validity was supported by significant differences in mean 
      scores by family income (P < .05). Results showed that increases in knowledge can 
      moderately increase mean steps/d and peak oxygen uptake, with an MCID of 2.13. 
      CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated preliminary validity of the DATE-Q. Future 
      research is needed to assess other measurement properties to confirm the 
      applicability of this tool in clinical and research settings.
