This study evaluated the reliability and validity of a scale to measure the degree to which hemodialysis patients practiced self care. We composed a conceptual framework for hemodialysis patients' self-care based on the Orem's nursing model (1991), and created a questionnaire to evaluate the practice of self-care in line with this conceptual framework. All 120 hemodialysis patients who participated in this study were undergoing treatment at two hospitals specializing in dialysis and provided informed consent to participate in this study. With regard to these results, in order to check for a response distribution bias and confirm that the questions encompassed the scope of the self-care conceptual framework, we examined the survey responses for content validity, differential validity, factorial validity, and the criterion-related validity, and at the same time confirmed the scale's reliability. The resulting universal self-care factor structure consists of 5 factors and 35 requisites, and the health-deviation self-care factor structure is comprised of 3 factors and 25 requisites. This analysis confirmed the high level of reliability and validity of this scale.
