Turkish validity and reliability study of Self-Blame Attributions for Cancer Scale: A methodological study.
Article in Palliative & supportive care, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
purposeThis study aimed to culturally adapt the Self-Blame Attributions for Cancer Scale (SBAC) into Turkish and evaluate its psychometric properties, including validity and reliability.
methodThis methodological study enrolled 161 patients from both inpatient and outpatient oncology departments of a university hospital during a 1-year observation period (March 2024-March 2025). Participant data were obtained by using 2 instruments: a demographic questionnaire and the adapted Turkish version of "the SBAC."
resultsConfirmatory factor analysis revealed strong factor loadings ranging from 0.670 to 0.850, indicating good item reliability. Model fit statistics demonstrated excellent psychometric properties (χ
conclusionThe study confirmed the bidimensional structure (11 items) of SBAC's Turkish version with excellent validity and reliability indices, supporting its cultural and psychometric adequacy for Turkish samples.
