Development and psychometric evaluation of the adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs scale for breast cancer survivors.
Article in Archives of women's mental health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeAdjuvant endocrine therapy has a vital role in reducing breast cancer mortality. The beliefs in adjuvant endocrine therapy is a very important factor in the medication adherence of breast cancer survivors. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a standardized scale for assessment of adjuvant endocrine therapy. The purpose of this study was to identify the attributes of adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs, and to evaluate adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs scale psychometric properties.
methodsA hybrid model was applied to identify the concept of adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs and measurement question were developed by the scale development process. Statistical analysis using validity analysis and Rasch analysis based on item response theory were performed. A total of 228 breast cancer survivors in South Korea participated in the study.
resultsThe finally developed adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs scale consisted of 22 items. The items extracted by 4 factors explained 59.72% of the total variance. The model fit showed an acceptable level. The adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs scale was excellent in convergent and discriminant validity with reliability.
conclusionThis scale is expected to be practical and useful in identifying adjuvant endocrine therapy beliefs and developing intervention strategies to promote adjuvant endocrine therapy adherence. In addition, continuous education and support should be accompanied so that breast cancer survivors can maintain positive beliefs in adjuvant endocrine therapy adherence.
