Abstract

Objective: To cross-culturally adapt and validate the Thai version of the Xerostomia Inventory (XI) and Summated Xerostomia Inventory (SXI) for subjective evaluation of oral dryness in Thai middle-aged and older adults.

Methods: The original English versions of the XI and SXI were cross-culturally translated into Thai. Content validity was examined by the expert panel and 30 pilot subjects. The XI/SXI-Thai were then administered to 200 Thai adults (aged 50 years or older) for further assessment of psychometric properties. The standard question, the Bother Index, and the Xerostomia Questionnaire were used as comparator instruments for the evaluation of criterion and construct validity, respectively. Internal consistency reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha.

Results: The final XI/SXI-Thai were found to have good content validity. Both scales were able to distinguish between xerostomia and non-xerostomia groups. We observed moderate to strong correlation between the XI/SXI-Thai and other comparator instruments, reflecting good criterion and construct validity. Cronbach's alpha values were 0.875 and 0.847 for the XI-Thai and SXI-Thai, respectively.

Conclusions: The XI-Thai and SXI-Thai were found to be valid, reliable, and easily administrable instruments for xerostomia assessment in Thai middle-aged and older individuals in both clinical and research settings.

泰国口臭量表》和《口臭总和量表》的跨文化改编。

目的对泰语版的口腔干燥量表（Xerostomia Inventory，XI）和口腔干燥综合量表（Summated Xerostomia Inventory，SXI）进行跨文化改编和验证，以便对泰国中老年人的口腔干燥情况进行主观评估：方法：将 XI 和 SXI 的英文原版跨文化翻译成泰文。专家小组和 30 名试点受试者对内容有效性进行了检验。然后对 200 名泰国成年人（50 岁或以上）进行了 XI/SXI-Thai 测试，以进一步评估其心理测量特性。标准问题、烦闷指数和口腔干燥症问卷被用作比较工具，分别用于评估标准效度和构造效度。内部一致性信度采用 Cronbach's alpha 进行评估：结果：最终的 XI/SXI-Thai 具有良好的内容效度。两个量表都能区分口腔异味组和非口腔异味组。我们观察到 XI/SXI-Thai 与其他比较工具之间存在中度到高度的相关性，反映出良好的标准效度和构造效度。XI-Thai 和 SXI-Thai 的 Cronbach's alpha 值分别为 0.875 和 0.847：XI-Thai 和 SXI-Thai 被认为是有效、可靠且易于使用的工具，适用于在临床和研究环境中对泰国中老年人进行口腔干燥症评估。

期刊介绍： Oral Diseases is a multidisciplinary and international journal with a focus on head and neck disorders, edited by leaders in the field, Professor Giovanni Lodi (Editor-in-Chief, Milan, Italy), Professor Stefano Petti (Deputy Editor, Rome, Italy) and Associate Professor Gulshan Sunavala-Dossabhoy (Deputy Editor, Shreveport, LA, USA). The journal is pre-eminent in oral medicine. Oral Diseases specifically strives to link often-isolated areas of dentistry and medicine through broad-based scholarship that includes well-designed and controlled clinical research, analytical epidemiology, and the translation of basic science in pre-clinical studies. The journal typically publishes articles relevant to many related medical specialties including especially dermatology, gastroenterology, hematology, immunology, infectious diseases, neuropsychiatry, oncology and otolaryngology. The essential requirement is that all submitted research is hypothesis-driven, with significant positive and negative results both welcomed. Equal publication emphasis is placed on etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.
