| Background: Coping refers to cognitive and behavioral efforts made to manage stressful situations. Caring for people with multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with increased stress among caregivers. Recognizing and managing caregivers' coping strategies can facilitate the rehabilitation of people with MS and improve the quality of care. Therefore, this study was conducted to translate and evaluate the validity and reliability of the Persian version of the Coping with MS Caregiving Inventory (CMSCI). Methods: In this methodological study, 170 caregivers of people with MS were investigated. The Persian translation of this scale was conducted using the International Quality of Life Assessment (IQOLA) method. The face validity of the CMSCI was assessed through a survey of 10 caregivers, and content validity was evaluated using both qualitative and quantitative methods, including the content validity index and the content validity ratio. To evaluate the reliability of the CMSCI, a test–retest procedure was conducted with 54 caregivers who completed the questionnaire twice at an interval of 10 days. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha. Results: The mean (SD) age of caregiver participants in this study was 42.3 (11.1) years. The mean (SD) age of people with MS under the caregivers’ care was 38.6 (9.2) years. The test–retest reliability coefficient of the CMSCI was calculated as 0.82, indicating acceptable stability. The internal consistency of the CMSCI, assessed using Cronbach’s alpha, was 0.75. Conclusion: The Persian version of the CMSCI demonstrated good validity and reliability for assessing coping strategies among caregivers of people with MS. Considering the vital role of caregivers in the treatment team and the impact of effective coping strategies on the quality of care for people with MS, the use of the CMSCI can be beneficial for evaluating and improving the rehabilitation process for both people with MS and their caregivers. | ||
