Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of ‘attitudes of nurses towards the patient’s use of TCM’ (APUTCM) and ‘communicative competence in TCM’ (CCTCM) scales. Materials and Methods: A total of 196 nurses participated in the study. A Nurse Information Form, APUTCM and CCTCM, and Holistic Complementary Alternative Medicine Questionnaire (HCAMQ) were used for data collection. Content Validity Index, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis, Cronbach’s α, item-scale correlation, test-retest, and parallel forms reliability were used to evaluate validity and reliability. Results: Of the participants, 76.0% were female and the mean age was 31.6±5.8 years. Content validity indexes of the scales were over 0.87. The factor loadings were over 0.612 for both scales. Cronbach’s α values of APUTCM and CCTCM were 0.955 and 0.928 respectively. Conclusions: Both scales were found valid and reliable in Turkish society to measure the attitudes of nurses toward the patient’s use of TCM and nurses’ communicative competence in TCM.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of family support and family conflict on treatment compliance of type 2 diabetes patients. Materials/Methods: The study was conducted in the endocrinology department of a university hospital. Data were collected from 174 individuals diagnosed with Type 2 DM. Patient Identification Form, Family Support and Conflict Scale in Type 2 Diabetes, and Patient Compliance Scale in Type 2 DM Treatment were used for data collection. Results: It was found that the increase in family support increased compliance with the treatment, and the increase in family conflict decreased the compliance to the treatment. A statistically significant difference was found between gender (p = 0.037), place of residence (p <0.001), income level (p <0.001) and compliance. A statistically significant difference was found between marital status (p <0.001) and family support. Conclusions: The increase in family support increases compliance to the treatment, the increase in family conflict decreases the compliance to the treatment.
