The study was designed to validate a translated, culturally adapted questionnaire. We examined the reliability, validity, and responsiveness of the Japanese version of the Roland-Morris Questionnaire (RDQ) when assessing disability in Japanese patients with low back pain. The RDQ is a reliable, validated scale used to measure disability caused by low back pain. However, no validated Japanese version of this questionnaire is available. A series of 214 outpatients with low back pain participated in this validation study. The patients were given the RDQ and the SF-36, and assessed their pain and global rating of health. Among them, 57 who were clinically stable were given the RDQ again 2 weeks later. The reliability was examined based on the test-retest method and internal consistency. Sufficient reliability was demonstrated with a Chronbach's. coefficient of 0.85, and the reproducibility for the 30 patients was r = 0.91. The principal component analysis showed unidimensionality. The RDQ score of the 133 patients was significantly improved after treatment. The Japanese version of the RDQ is a useful scale that is easy to use with reliability, validity, and responsiveness when assessing patients with low back pain.
本研究旨在验证一份经过翻译和文化调适的问卷。我们在评估日本腰痛患者的残疾情况时，检验了罗兰-莫里斯问卷（RDQ）日文版的信度、效度和反应度。RDQ是一个用于测量腰痛所致残疾的可靠且经过验证的量表。然而，目前尚无经过验证的该问卷日文版。214名腰痛门诊患者参与了这项验证研究。患者接受了RDQ和SF-36评估，并对其疼痛和整体健康状况进行了评分。其中，57名临床症状稳定的患者在两周后再次接受了RDQ评估。基于重测法和内部一致性检验信度。克朗巴哈系数为0.85，证明具有足够的信度，30名患者的重测信度r = 0.91。主成分分析显示问卷具有单维度性。133名患者治疗后的RDQ评分显著改善。RDQ日文版是一个有用的量表，在评估腰痛患者时易于使用，且具有信度、效度和反应度。
