Validation and cultural adaptation of the Japanese version of the Self-Care Inventory across different research settings: a cross-sectional study
The JSCI demonstrated satisfactory psychometric properties and structural validity across diverse research settings. Its observed associations with a range of meaningful self-care behaviors support the scale's ecological and practical relevance in the Japanese context. The JSCI may serve as a reliable tool for evaluating and promoting self-care in both research and population health initiatives.
