OBJECTIVE: To elaborate and validate a questionnaire for identifying common styles of Primary Care doctors' practice. SETTING: Primary Health Care. Public sector in Spain. DESIGN: This was a study to validate a questionnaire administered in two phases with different samples. In the first phase, the items (item-total correlation, using Alpha on eliminating item), validity of construction, empirical validity and internal consistency, were analysed. In the second, discriminatory validity and reliability of the questionnaire (test-retest) were calculated. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: 81.5% of the doctors replied in the first phase; and 100% in the second. Two factors were isolated with the Principal Components procedure, which confirmed the validity of the questionnaire's construction (52% variance explained). Internal consistency (Alphas ranged between 0.55 and 0.75) and reliability (ranging between 0.50 and 0.95 in function of the time elapsed) were also demonstrated. CONCLUSIONS: This instrument could be used to differentiate two styles in practice, characterised by focusing on the physical illness vs the psycho-social aspects of the disease process. The instrument is also useful because it gives the feeling of control over the task.
