Abstract

This study reports on the cultural and language translation of measures for use with Zulu speakers in South Africa. The translation process was purposefully used to integrate our diverse 14 person study team by employing Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR) strategies. Measures included: the Medical Outcomes Study HIV Health Survey (MOS-HIV), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). The translation was made complex by the variation in Zulu dialects across regions and even between two cities only forty-five minutes apart. Carefully conceived translations can simultaneously produce good translationsand deepen team members' understanding of each-other.

一项涉及传统医疗服务提供者和受过生物医学训练的从业人员的临床研究中患者报告的结果测量的翻译和文化适应。

本研究报告了在南非祖鲁语使用者使用的措施的文化和语言翻译。通过采用基于社区的参与式研究(CBPR)策略，我们有目的地使用翻译过程来整合我们多样化的14人研究团队。测量方法包括:医学结果研究HIV健康调查(MOS-HIV)、流行病学研究中心抑郁量表(CES-D)和感知压力量表(PSS)。由于祖鲁方言在不同地区的差异，甚至在两个相距45分钟的城市之间的差异，使得翻译变得复杂。精心构思的翻译可以同时产生好的翻译，并加深团队成员之间的理解。
