The PEQ is a unidimensional instrument with four items that assess a patient's\n experience of an outpatient appointment. <jats:bold>Research Design<\/jats:bold>\u2003Retrospective cross-sectional study. <jats:bold>Study Sample<\/jats:bold>\u2003Patients attending appointments for audiology services at RSFT between January and March 2020. <jats:bold>Data Collection and Analysis<\/jats:bold>\u2003All patients\n (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009656) attending appointments for audiology services at RSFT during randomly selected days between January and March 2020 were given the questionnaire to complete themselves (PEQ-self) or to complete on their child's behalf (PEQ-parent). The factor structures for the\n PEQ-self and PEQ-parent were assessed separately, using confirmatory factor analysis. A multiple-causes, multiple-indicators (MIMIC) model was fitted to explore potential bias due to gender and age. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's \u03b1. The bivariate correlations between\n PEQ scores and other variables were evaluated using the nonparametric Spearman correlation coefficient. Floor and ceiling effects were assessed using the distribution of total scores. <jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>\u2003Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that a one-factor model gave a close fit to\n the data for both the self and parent versions. Cronbach's \u03b1 for the total score was 0.77 for the PEQ-self and 0.86 for the PEQ-parent. The MIMIC model showed no significant direct effects of age or gender for either version. <jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>\u2003Both the PEQ-self and PEQ-parent\n questionnaire can be reliably used to measure patients' experiences of outpatient audiology appointments. Future studies should aim to assess the psychometric properties of the PEQ-self and PEQ-parent for a range of outpatient appointments other than audiology.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1736575","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,6]],"date-time":"2022-05-06T00:42:31Z","timestamp":1651797751000},"page":"82-91","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Psychometric Evaluation of a Patient Experience Questionnaire (PEQ) for Outpatient Appointments: Analysis Using Data from a U.K. National Health Service Audiology Department"],"prefix":"10.3766","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Hashir","family":"Aazh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Audiology Department, Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust, Egerton Road, Guildford, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Judith","family":"Ballinger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Audiology Department, Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust, Egerton Road, Guildford, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chloe","family":"Hayes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biostatistics and Health Informatics Department, Psychometric and Measurement Lab, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neurosciences, King's College London, London, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Pepler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Audiology Department, Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust, Egerton Road, Guildford, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Karen","family":"Lammaing","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Audiology Department, Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust, Egerton Road, Guildford, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Brian C.
