The purpose of this study was to test the validity and reliability of an Arabic translation and adaptation of the child oral-health-related quality of life questionnaire (CPQ(11-14)) in Saudi Arabia.
The modified questionnaire included two global ratings (oral health and oral-health-related well-being), and a battery of 36 questions in four domains (oral symptoms, functional limitations, emotional well-being and social well-being). The study population consisted of 174, 11-14-year-old children (65% healthy and 35% medically compromised). Clinical data on caries status and malocclusion were collected for 138 of the children, and 47 completed the questionnaire a second time.
There was a significant difference in mean total scale scores between children with and without malocclusions (P < 0.05). Significant relationships were identified between caries status and oral symptoms subscale scores, and between malocclusion and total scale and social well-being subscale scores (P < 0.05). Correlation was highly significant between scale scores and global ratings (P < 0.01). Cronbach's alpha was 0.81 and the test-retest reliability was substantial (r = 0.65, P < 0.001). However, problems were encountered in Saudi Arabia regarding self-reporting of age, and the questionnaire was too long for many of the medically compromised patients.
The questionnaire is valid and reliable for use in Saudi Arabia, although development of a shorter version is recommended.
本研究旨在检验儿童口腔健康相关生活质量问卷（CPQ(11 - 14)）阿拉伯语翻译及改编版在沙特阿拉伯的有效性和可靠性。
修改后的问卷包括两个总体评分（口腔健康和口腔健康相关幸福感），以及四个领域的36个问题（口腔症状、功能受限、情绪幸福感和社会幸福感）。研究对象为174名11至14岁儿童（65%健康，35%有健康问题）。为其中138名儿童收集了龋齿状况和错颌畸形的临床数据，47名儿童第二次完成了问卷。
有和没有错颌畸形的儿童在平均总分上存在显著差异（P < 0.05）。龋齿状况与口腔症状子量表得分之间，以及错颌畸形与总量表和社会幸福感子量表得分之间存在显著相关性（P < 0.05）。量表得分与总体评分之间的相关性非常显著（P < 0.01）。克朗巴哈系数为0.81，重测信度较高（r = 0.65，P < 0.001）。然而，在沙特阿拉伯，年龄自我报告方面存在问题，而且问卷对许多有健康问题的患者来说太长。
该问卷在沙特阿拉伯使用是有效且可靠的，不过建议开发一个更简短的版本。
