Development and validation of the Japanese version of the Public Attitudes Toward Epilepsy (PATE‐J) Scale
The PATE-J demonstrates strong psychometric properties and cultural relevance for measuring public attitudes toward epilepsy in Japan. Its validated two-factor structure supports cross-cultural comparisons and provides a reliable tool for assessing public attitudes, informing interventions, and guiding education campaigns.
