Psychometric evaluation and measurement invariance of the Sexual and Relationship Distress Scale in cancer and nonclinical general reproductive-age populations

Our findings suggest that the Chinese version of the SaRDS is a reliable, valid, and psychometrically sound instrument for assessing sexual and relationship distress in clinical cancer and nonclinical reproductive-age populations. Its demonstrated measurement invariance across populations and genders supports its broad applicability in clinical practice and research.

Abstract

Our findings suggest that the Chinese version of the SaRDS is a reliable, valid, and psychometrically sound instrument for assessing sexual and relationship distress in clinical cancer and nonclinical reproductive-age populations. Its demonstrated measurement invariance across populations and genders supports its broad applicability in clinical practice and research.
