What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Scale Form for Diagnosing Signs and Risks of Child Abuse and Neglect
There are 6 subscales in the scale form for diagnosing the symptoms and risks of child abuse and neglect. These are; Physical symptoms of abuse on children (19 items), Behavioral symptoms of child abuse (15 items), Symptoms of neglect on children (7 items), Characteristics of parents prone to abuse and neglect (13 items), Characteristics of children prone to abuse and neglect (5 items), Familial characteristics in child abuse and neglect (8 items). Likert-type scale for determining the knowledge levels of nurses and midwives in diagnosing the symptoms and risks of child abuse and neglect. A score average approaching 5 indicates that they are knowledgeable about the signs and risks of child abuse and neglect, and a score away from 3 indicates that they are not knowledgeable about the signs and risks of child abuse and neglect. A subject who answers all items of the scale form correctly is expected to receive a full score of 335.
