Purpose:Ego-integrity in older adults is the central concept related to quality of life in later life. Therefore, for effective interventions to enhance the quality of later life, a scale to measure ego-integrity in older adults is necessary. This study was carried out to develop a scale to measure ego-integrity in older adults.
Methods:This study utilized cronbach’’s alpha in analyzing the reliability of the collected data and expert group, and factor analysis and item analysis to analyze validity.
Results:Seventeen items were selected from a total of 21 items. Cronbach’’s alpha coefficient for internal consistency was.88 for the 17 items of ego-integrity in the older adults scale. Three factors evolved by factor analysis, which explained 50.71% of the total variance.
