I would like to use Morisky scale to measure adherence and compare the result with therapeutic drug monitoring .There is a validated Arabic version of morisky scale so if I get the copyrights from prof. Morisky should I
1. conduct pilot study ?what is the sample
2. conduct Construct validity
3. test-retest reliability
4. Known group validity
5. Sensitivity and specificity
And after that I compare with therapeutic drug monitoring or no
thank you
Dr. Morisky likes to be asked before using his scale. Citing is not enough. Please ask him.
You can contact him by email. Recent contact with him, he said that he will give the copyright to universities only.
I am also send him massage to get the arabic version but he do not give me the version
Yes i think the permission is given to institutions instead of individual. However i suggest you use another questionnaire
First of all prof. Morisky or his lawyer should be asked to get permission before you start to conduct your research using this copywrite protected data gathering tool via email.
