Reliability and validity assessment of a survey: Measuring satisfaction with cochlear implant rehabilitation services for children in Jordan.
Review in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAssessing parental satisfaction with healthcare services is crucial, particularly for parents and their children, who are the primary recipients of these services. In the context of Arabic-speaking parents, there is a notable absence of survey instruments tailored to measure their satisfaction. This study seeks to address this gap by validating a survey designed to evaluate parental satisfaction with rehabilitation services (RSs) provided to Jordanian children who have received cochlear implants (CIs).
methodsThe study included 92 participants and followed a four-step methodology: 1) a literature review and expert input; 2) cognitive interviews, pilot testing, and test-retest reliability testing; 3) data collection; 4) validity and reliability assessments.
resultsThe survey's validity was confirmed. Expert input and cognitive interviews improved content validity, and factor analysis established construct validity by revealing six factors explaining 82.33% of the variance in the survey scale. Convergent and discriminant validity were confirmed (composite reliability >0.7 and average variance extracted value >0.5). Cronbach's α exceeded 0.8 for each factor and reached 0.855 for the total scale. Survey results showed reliance on speech therapy and audiology, varied rehabilitation durations, and progress. Parents expressed overall satisfaction, particularly influenced by technical quality and efficacy/outcome dimensions. Parents' recommendations to enhance satisfaction with RSs included financial support, improved service accessibility, enhanced service delivery, specialized education, and increased public awareness.
conclusionThis study validates an Arabic satisfaction survey, emphasizing the significance of multidisciplinary, extended rehabilitation programs, skilled professionals, and positive outcomes. It emphasizes the necessity for improved access to specialized care and collaboration among healthcare, government, and media to shape parental perceptions of RSs. While the findings indicate overall satisfaction, they also reveal challenges faced by parents, highlighting the need for comprehensive support systems. These insights assist healthcare providers and policymakers in enhancing care quality and meeting the needs of CI children's families, thereby improving the RSs experience in Jordan.
