Validity and reliability
"The scale consists of 40 items and four sub-dimensions, and is scored according to a 5-point Likert rating scale (ranging from Strongly Disagree (Score = 1 point) to Strongly Agree (Score = 5 points)). The scale evaluates the healthy/patient individual's readiness attitude level towards acupuncture, personal beliefs, preferences and experiences. The score received per sub-dimension varies between a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 50 points. The average cut-off score per sub-dimension is 25. The higher the score (above the average cut-off score), the more open the healthy/patient individual is to acupuncture. Sub-dimensions:~Sub-Dimension 1 (Items 1-10): Willingness to Try Acupuncture Sub-Dimension 2 (Items 11-20): Belief in the Effectiveness of Acupuncture Sub-Dimension 3 (Items 21-30): Comfort in the Acupuncture Sub-Dimension 4 (Items 31-40): Concerns and Preferences"
