Popis: | Purpose: This study aimed to translate the Parent’s Evaluation of Aural/Oral Performance of Children (PEACH) Rating Scale into Korean and to verify its reliability and validity in normal-hearing children.Methods: The translation of the PEACH questionnaire to Korean was done by keeping the original meaning as possible. The contents were verified to confirm the appropriateness of the translated PEACH version. The Korean version of PEACH was conducted on parents of 120 children with normal hearing aged 0 to 4 years. The internal consistency reliability and constructive validity analyses were performed. The PEACH scores (quiet, noise, and overall) were compared between age groups, and the logistic regression analyses between scores and age were examined.Results: Chronbach’s alpha values of the PEACH were 0.954 in overall, 0.939 in quiet, and 0.885 in noise, showing high internal consistency reliability, and significant constructive validity was shown. The PEACH scores significantly increased as age increased from 0 to 4 years. There were large score differences in the age range from 0 to 2 years. There was no significant difference after 3 years of age, but a significantly lower score was observed in noise. The logistic regression analysis between scores and age indicated that 85% of the overall score was achieved at 31 months of age.Conclusion: These findings suggest that the Korean version of PEACH is highly reliable and valid as a test tool for measuring the hearing performance of young children. |
