OBJECTIVES: To translate, adapt and validate the Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS) instrument for Indonesian type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) outpatients with various types of complications. METHODS: Participants were recruited from four hospitals and two primary healthcare facilities. The procedure of the study included forward and backward translations, an adaptation testing with a small subset of participants, and a validation test. Factor analysis with maximum likelihood estimation and promax rotation was used to investigate the instrument structure. Internal consistency among the items was estimated using Cronbach’s alpha for each of the four domains of the DDS. The instrument form resulting from this study was labeled DDS17 Bahasa Indonesia.
