Development and validation of the arabic version of the social-ecological model questionnaire for patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis
The Arabic SEM-based questionnaire is a reliable and valid tool for assessing multi-level support factors among MHD patients in Arabic-speaking contexts. It enables comprehensive evaluation for research and clinical practice. Future research should confirm its structure using confirmatory factor analysis, extend validation to diverse Arab populations, and examine temporal stability.
