Cross-cultural validation and psychometric testing of the SCI falls concern scale (SCI-FCS) among manual wheelchair users in Delhi, India.
Study design: Methodological Research Design.
Objectives: To establish the content validity, internal consistency reliability & test-retest reliability of the SCI-FCS for individuals with SCI in Delhi, India.
Setting: Indian Spinal Injuries Centre, India.
Methods: A panel of 13 experts validated the content of the 16-item scale using both qualitative and quantitative methods. The scale was then piloted with 43 manual wheelchair users with SCI. Internal consistency was assessed through item analysis, and 20 participants were retested after one week to evaluate test-retest reliability.
Results: All items met the minimum Content Validity Ratio (CVR) of 0.54 required for 13 experts, ensuring their retention. The scale demonstrated a strong internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.865) and good test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.785).
Conclusion: The SCI-FCS is a valid and reliable tool to assess the fall concerns in manual wheelchair users with SCI in Delhi, India. It can help rehabilitation professionals evaluate the effectiveness of fall prevention interventions.
