Arabic Version of the Perceived Access to Health Care Questionnaire: Validation, Factor Analysis, and Rasch Modeling
The Arabic PAHSQ is a reliable and valid tool for assessing healthcare access among Arabic-speaking populations. Its use can inform targeted interventions, guide resource allocation, and support health equity initiatives. Further research should explore its applicability across diverse Arabic-speaking regions and incorporate qualitative methodologies to capture more subtle access barriers.
