Measuring contraceptive self-efficacy in women: the Turkish validity and reliability study.

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
aimThis study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Contraceptive Self-Efficacy in Women in Sub-Saharan Africa (CSESSA) scale.
backgroundContraceptive self-efficacy is a crucial predictor of utilization of modern contraceptive methods. However, the existing tools for comprehensively assessing contraceptive self-efficacy are limited. Methods: The sample of this methodological study consisted of 510 female participants of reproductive age. The translation and cultural adaptation of the scale were performed. For validity, content validity and construct validity were tested. For reliability, test-retest reliability, Cronbach's alpha coefficient, and item-total score correlations were evaluated. Findings: The goodness-of-fit indices showed an overall acceptable fit with the three-factor model. Cronbach's alpha for the overall CSESSA scale was 0.867, and for the three subscales, it ranged from 0.77 to 0.84. The scale's test-retest reliability was found to be r = 0.83 (p < 0.001), and the item-total correlations score ranged from 0.495 to 0.646. The Turkish version of the scale is a valid and reliable tool to measure the contraceptive self-efficacy of women of reproductive age. This scale can provide a comprehensive understanding of self-efficacy by assessing various dimensions of contraceptive self-efficacy.
