(2) Social comfort (Group 2 - 5 items): statements 4, 8, 11, 12, 13
The responses use a 5 point Likert scale (strongly disagree, slightly disagree, neither agree nor disagree, slightly agree, strongly agree).
convenience subscore =
= SUM(points for all 10 statements)
social comfort subscore =
= SUM(points for all 5 statements)
total score =
= SUM(points for all 15 statements)
Interpretation:
• minimum convenience subscore: 10
• maximum convenience subscore: 50
• minimum social comfort subscore: 5
• maximum social comfort subscore: 25
• minimum total score: 15
• maximum total score: 75
• The higher the score, the greater the patient satisfaction with the regimen.
percent of maximal satisfaction =
= ((total score) – 15) / 60 * 100%
