Abstract:
In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to investigate psychometric properties of the Persian versions of condom use self-efficacy (CUSES), attitude toward condom use (ATCUS), and sexually transmitted infection risk perception (STIsRP) scales among Iranian female sex workers (FSWs). We translated original versions of the scales into Persian, and through census, recruited and interviewed 140 FSWs. Appropriate validity, reliability, functionality and simplicity were demonstrated for the scales. We found the measurement model with a good fit to the data (χ2 [104] = 89.537, p < .01, CFI = 0.978, NFI = 0.931, TLI = 0.981, RMSEA = 0.055 [0.023-0.081]). Our findings supported the applicability of the Persian CUSES, ATCUS, and STIsRP in the Iranian and other Persian-speaking FSW populations.
