Abstract：Objective:To translate the Osteoporosis Preventive Behaviors Scale(OPBS)into Chinese,and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:The English version of OPBS was translated,back-translated according to the Brislin model,and the Chinese version of OPBS was formed after cultural adaptation and pre-surveyed.A total of 311 people of community residents in Wuhan from November 2022 to January 2023 were investigated to test the reliability and validity of the scale.Results:The Chinese version of OPBS included 4 dimensions and 28 items.The scale level content validity index(S-CVI)was 0.970,and the item level content validity index(I-CVI)ranged from 0.833 to 1.000.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 4 common factors,and the cumulative contribution rate of variance was 65.867%.The results of confirmatory factor analysis show that the model was well-fitted.The Cronbach's α coefficient for the total scale was 0.951,the Cronbach's α coefficients for each dimension were 0.912,0.917,0.927,and 0.890.And the Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.809.Conclusion:The Chinese version of OPBS has good reliability and validity.The scale is suitable for evaluating the level of osteoporosis prevention behavior of community residents.
