| DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTRUMENT | |
| Type Of Measure | Questionnaire |
| Brief Description |
The PEPPI was developed to measure older patients’ selfefficacy in both obtaining medical information and attention to their chief health concern from a physician. The original version of the PEPPI consisted of 10 items and demonstrated excellent structural validity, internal consistency (a = 0.91), and adequate convergent and discriminant construct validity in a sample of 163 community-dwelling older adults with a mean age of 77 years. Additionally, a 5-item short form (PEPPI-5) was developed that consisted of those items that demonstrated the most variability while maintaining adequate internal consistency and construct validity. |
| Number of Items | 5 |
| Range | Range from 5 to 25. |
| Responses options/scale |
No |
| Developed for | --- |
| PRACTICAL APPLICATION | |
| Method of administration | Self-administered |
| Recommendations to score |
Five questions with responses on a 5- point numerical rating scale. Total scores are summed. |
| Score Interpretation | Higher total scores reflect higher perceived self-efficacy in patient-physician interactions |
| Cut-off points | --- |
| Cut-off points applied to | --- |
| Smallest detectable change if described | --- |
| Smallest detectable change applied to | --- |
| Completion time by the patient | - minutes |
| Scoring time by the assessor | - minutes |
| Training to score | Not necessary |
| Strengths | Useful in clinical practice & research |
| Limitations | --- |
