Translation and Cultural Adaptation of the Preferences for Everyday Living Inventory for Korean Nursing Home Settings.

Valid and reliable measures are necessary to provide person-centered care. However, there are no such measures in Korean nursing home (NH) settings. The purpose of the current study was to translate and culturally adapt the Preferences for Everyday Living Inventory (PELI) into Korean following the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research guidelines. Face validity was assessed by cognitively capable Korean older adults ( = 10) using a 4-point Likert scale (1 = to 4 = ). Mean score was 2.7 ( = 0.82) for grammar and wording; 3.7 ( = 0.48) for understandability; and 3.7 ( = 0.67) for cultural relevance. Participants found the Korean version of the PELI (PELI-K) easy to understand and interpret, and culturally relevant. Results suggest that the PELI was successfully translated and culturally adapted to Korean. Implementing the PELI-K in Korean NHs and incorporating individual preferences into care delivery will improve quality of care. [(5), 5-10.].
