Abstract Background The objective of the study was to cross-culturally adapt and validate the General Medication Adherence Scale (GMAS) in patients with type-2 diabetes in Morocco. Methods The study was a cross-sectional study conducted between September 12 and October 12, 2022, and included patients with type-2 diabetes from a primary health care network. To measure the different psychometric parameters of the construct, data analysis was performed using SPSS v20. The study was approved by the Moroccan Association for Research and Ethics. Results A total of 284 patients were included in the study; the results of the different psychometric parameters were largely acceptable. Indeed, the improvement of the goodness-of-fit of the model in relation to the independence model was evaluated by the comparative fit index (CFI), which was higher than 0.95, as well as the normalized fit index (NFI), which expresses the percentage of the general covariance between the variable demonstrated via the tested model when the null model is taken as reference and was also higher than 0.95 in this study. Additionally, the Tucker Louis Index (TLI) or Unstandardized Fit Index, which measures the increase in goodness of fit when moving from the reference model to the model under study, had a value of > 0.95. The correlations between the items were good; indeed, the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) index was > 0.7. The translated tool presents good internal consistency; thus, Cronbach’s α had a value of approximately 0.804 (> 0.7). Conclusions The version of the GMAS tool adapted to the Moroccan context has very acceptable psychometric values. This means that Moroccan researchers and health professionals can use it as an instrument to measure adherence among individuals with type-2 diabetes. |
