| Summary: | Introduction: Although the translation and the validation of the McLean Screening
Instrument for Borderline Personality Disorder (MSI-BPD) are performed in various
languages and samples, no study has established the validity and reliability of the Urdu
version of MSI-BPD in individuals with cardiac problems.
Materials and Methods: The Urdu version of the MSI-BPD was prepared through
the standard back-translation method. The translation and adaption were completed in
four steps: forward translation, adaption and translation, back translation and committee
approach, and cross-language validation. The sample, selected through the purposive
sampling method, comprised of 150 adults with cardiac problems (men = 75 and
women = 75), with an age range of 23–78 years (M = 55, SD = 10.6). The
Cronbach alpha reliability and factorial validity of the MSI-BPD were assessed through
confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and Pearson correlation analyses. Internal consistency
and test–retest reliability (at 2 weeks’ interval) were used to evaluate the reliability.
Statistical analyses were performed, using SPSS (version 22) and Structural Equation
Modeling (SEM) software.
Results: Preliminary analysis revealed that the overall instrument had good internal
consistency (Urdu MSI-BPD α = 0.79; English MSI-BPD α = 0.77) as well as test–retest
correlation coefficients for 15 days (r = 0.94).
Conclusions: Findings suggested that the MSI-BPD, with important limitations, can be
used as an effective preliminary screening tool to measure BPD in Urdu-speaking adults
with cardiac problems. Further validations should be conducted to make the translated
version of the MSI-BPD an appropriate tool to screen BPD in hospitals and mental health
care settings. |
