DESCRIPTION: This application requests support for a study to determine the psychometric properties of a new measure of trust/mistrust of the medical care system. The Medical Mistrust Index Version 2.1 (MMIv2.1) was initially developed to test the hypothesis that mistrust is a determinant of under-utilization of medical care services among racial minorities and as such will help explain race disparities in utilization of healthcare services. However, we believe that the concept of trust/mistrust has much broader implications for health services research. Development of the measure has been ongoing since 1996. In a pilot study using a small "convenience sample" the MMIv2.1 has displayed promising psychometric properties. We now seek support to conduct a study to validate the measure and establish its psychometric properties in a community sample. There are two specific aims: 1. To establish the reliability of the Medical Mistrust Index Version 2.1 2. To establish the validity of the Medical Mistrust Index Version 2.1

描述：此应用程序要求支持研究以确定 对医疗保健的信任/不信任的新量度的心理测量特性 系统。医学不信任指数2.1（MMIV2.1）最初是 开发的是测试不信任的假设是 种族少数群体中医疗服务的利用不足，因此 将有助于解释利用医疗服务的种族差异。 但是，我们认为信任/不信任的概念更广泛 对卫生服务研究的影响。该措施的发展具有 自1996年以来一直在进行。在一项试点研究中，使用少量的“便利样本” MMIV2.1已显示出有希望的心理测量特性。我们现在寻求 支持进行研究以验证量度并确定其措施 社区样本中的心理测量特性。有两个具体的目标： 1。建立医疗不信任指数版本2.1的可靠性 2。建立医疗不信任指数版本2.1的有效性
