Abstract
Background and Purpose
Modified Engulfment Scale (MES) measure the impact of a schizophrenic illness on an individual’s self-concept. The objective of this study was to determine psychometric properties of the Turkish form of MES (MES-T).
Methods
This cross-sectional study were included 162 schizophrenia patients with a convenience sampling method.
Results
Based on the results of factor analysis, five items were removed from the original version of the scale. It was determined that the MES-T consists of 25 items, and it has three factors: change in self-concept, belief in treatment, and future expectation. As a result of Pearson product-moment, low and moderate correlation coefficients were obtained between subscales, and moderate and high correlation coefficients were achieved between the subscales and total score of the scale.
Conclusions
The scale was found to be applicable for schizophrenia patients in Turkish population.
