Abstract:

Parenting a child with learning disability can be a source of significant stress and affects the quality of life of the parents and families. The aim of this study was to evaluate thepsychometric properties of the Malay version of PedsQLTM Family Impact Module that measure the impact of children with learning disabilities on their
caregivers’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and family functioning. A crosssectional study was conducted involving 383 caregivers of children with learning disabilities in Kelantan, a state of Peninsular Malaysia. Internal consistency reliability, construct validity and construct reliability were evaluated using Cronbach’s alpha and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The Malay version of PedsQLTM  Family Impact Moduleshowed good internal consistency reliability (Cronbach’s alpha > 0.7). Second order CFA showed that the instrument had acceptable construct validity after modification with Goodness-of-fit indices reached the standard indicating acceptable model fit (2(426) = 878.842, p<0.001; RMSEA = 0.053; CFI = 0.918; 2/df= 2.063).Average variance extracted and composite reliability achieved minimum acceptable value for main construct and all subconstructs except Physical Functioning subconstruct. The Malay version of PedsQLTM Family Impact Module with eight subscales and 31 items had adequate construct validity and reliability and could be used to assess the impact of pediatric disability on parent HRQoL and family functioning in Malay-speaking Malaysian familieS.
