objectives: Given the lack of a valid instrument, this study was undertaken to validate the questionnaire of midwives and general practitioners’ sexual dialogue with postmenopausal women
Methods: The present study adopts an exploratory-sequential mixed method. Based on the findings of the qualitative part of the study, the questionnaire was designed and factor analysis was measured by Amos software and SPSS-16
Results: The mean age of participants was 40.39 years. The Cronbach's alpha value of all constructs was above 0.70. Factor loads of all items were significant (above 0.4) and the coefficients were in the range of 0.61 to 0.95. Also, the values of GFI, CFI, RMSEA indices were 0.92, 0.91 and 0.051, respectively. All indices had desirable values, and X2/df= was 1.32.
Conclusion: This 10-item questionnaire with its 4 dimensions can be utilized as a valid and reliable tool to explore attitudes toward sexual dialogue with postmenopausal women.
