The translation into Dutch and validation process of the SPOT-25 was performed according to the COSMIN guidelines. Patients were asked to complete the SPOT-25 and Glasgow Health Status Questionnaire (GHSQ) preoperatively, the SPOT-25, GHSQ and Glasgow Benefit Inventory six to eight weeks postoperatively and the SPOT-25 eight to ten weeks postoperatively. Healthy controls were asked to complete the translated SPOT-25 once. Preoperative and postoperative audiometric results were also obtained. The evaluated measurement properties included construct validity, measurement invariance, discriminative validity, reliability and responsiveness of the translated SPOT-25.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Hundred and fifteen patients and 50 healthy controls were analyzed. Analyses of the translated SPOT-25 showed adequate construct validity, discriminative validity, reliability and responsiveness. The SPOT-25 scores were strongly correlated with the GHSQ score. The internal consistency and test-retest reliability were good as Cronbach's alpha and intraclass correlation coefficients were higher than 0.70. The four-factor model fitted best in our population of otosclerosis patients; however the results indicated a mediocre fit between the model and the data.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The Dutch SPOT-25 showed good validity, reliability and responsiveness and can be implemented as an additional outcome measure to improve otosclerosis research and clinical practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":11952,"journal":{"name":"European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology","volume":" ","pages":"4477-4486"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12423205/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143997135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
