| Scale | Knowledge Subscale | Attitude Subscale | Behavior Subscale | Overall Scale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Knowledge subscale | 0.62 (0.49-0.72) | |||
| Attitude subscale | 0.29 (0.12-0.44) | 0.69 (0.61-0.76) | ||
| Behavior subscale | 0.33 (0.16-0.47) | 0.66 (0.55-0.74) | 0.66 (0.55-0.74) | |
| Overall scale | 0.53 (0.40-0.64) | 0.87 (0.82-0.90) | 0.91 (0.87-0.93) | 0.82 (0.76-0.85) |
Abbreviation: ICU, intensive care unit.
Internal consistency for the 3 subscales and the overall scale was evaluated using Cronbach α (95% confidence interval), as displayed in bold on the main diagonal of the table. Other values in the table (not in bold) represent correlations between the subscales, evaluated using the Pearson correlation statistic (95% confidence interval).
