Validity and reliability of the Approaches to Dementia Questionnaire (ADQ) in Indonesian health students
The Indonesian version of the ADQ demonstrated lower reliability and variable subscale consistency compared to adaptations in other countries. This may be due to limited public awareness and associated stigma towards dementia. These findings highlight the need for further refinement of item wording and better alignment with local contexts, to improve the tool's validity and reliability for use in different populations.
