Translation, Adaptation, and Validation of the Young Spine Questionnaire for the Italian Children.
Purpose: Low back and neck pain are increasing worldwide, even in children. However, Italy lacks validated tools for the assessment of children and adolescents with spine disorders. The Young Spine Questionnaire (YSQ) seems to be an appropriate option. The aim of this study was to translate, adapt, and validate the YSQ to develop an Italian version of it.
Methods: One hundred thirty-three participants were recruited in the area of Trieste, aged between 9 and 12 years old. The YSQ and the KIDSCREEN-10 were assessed with regard to their reliability, test-retest reliability from 3 to 4 days, and construct validity.
Results: The mean age of the sample was 10.25 (±1.5), with a slight prevalence of females (62.7%). The internal consistency was high, with an alpha score ranging from 0.62 to 0.92 and a total score of 0.82. The test-retest showed good reproducibility. The total score of the YSQ showed a Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.87. For the dimensions and the items of the questionnaire, the scores ranged from 0.52 to 0.79. Construct validity showed a strong correlation between the questionnaires, with a score of 0.61.
Conclusions: The YSQ seems to be a valid and reliable questionnaire to assess spinal pain in Italian children. According to the results of the psychometric proprieties, the use of this questionnaire is recommended.
期刊介绍:
Pediatric Physical Therapy is an indexed international journal, that publishes peer reviewed research related to the practice of physical therapy for children with movement disorders. The editorial board is comprised of an international panel of researchers and clinical scholars that oversees a rigorous peer review process. The journal serves as the official journal for the pediatric physical therapy professional organizations in the Netherlands, Switzerland, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. The journal includes articles that support evidenced based practice of physical therapy for children with neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory and developmental conditions that lead to disorders of movement, and research reports that contribute to the foundational sciences of pediatric physical therapy, ranging from biomechanics and pediatric exercise science to neurodevelopmental science. To these ends the journal publishes original research articles, systematic reviews directed to specific clinical questions that further the science of physical therapy, clinical guidelines and case reports that describe unusual conditions or cutting edge interventions with sound rationale. The journal adheres to the ethical standards of theInternational Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
