The Standardised Nordic Questionnaire (SNQ) is an instrument to analyse the musculoskeletal symptoms in an ergonomic or occupational health context. We aimed to cross-culturally adapt and evaluate the psychometric properties of the SNQ among Spanish musicians.
Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric validation (reliability, validity, and feasibility) was performed. Reliability was analysed by test-retest reliability (Cohen's Kappa) and internal consistency (Kuder-Richardson). Content and face validity were measured by the Expert Committee and the opinion of participants. Construct validity (Mann-Whitney U test) was measured by comparing with questionnaires used to assess pain and disability in neck, shoulders, upper back, and low back regions. Feasibility was calculated with the average response time.
A total of 312 Spanish musicians were included. The Spanish version of SNQ achieved good semantic, conceptual, idiomatic, and content equivalence. For most of the variables, test-retest reliability was good to very good (k = 0.60-0.81). The internal consistency showed good to acceptable (Kuder-Richardson 20 (KR20) = 0.737-0.873). Participants with versus without musculoskeletal problems in a related region showed significantly higher disability/pain, indicating a good construct validity. About the feasibility, the average response time of the questionnaire was 6 min (±2).
The results show that the Spanish SNQ is reliable, valid, and feasible screening tool to assess musculoskeletal problems among musicians.
标准化北欧问卷(SNQ)是一种在人体工程学或职业健康背景下分析肌肉骨骼症状的工具。我们旨在对西班牙音乐家进行跨文化适应性和心理测量学特性评估。
进行了跨文化适应性和心理测量学验证(可靠性、有效性和可行性)。可靠性通过重测信度(Cohen 的 Kappa)和内部一致性(Kuder-Richardson)进行分析。内容和表面有效性通过专家委员会和参与者的意见进行衡量。结构有效性(Mann-Whitney U 检验)通过与用于评估颈部、肩部、上背部和下背部区域疼痛和残疾的问卷进行比较来衡量。可行性通过平均响应时间计算。
共纳入 312 名西班牙音乐家。SNQ 的西班牙语版本实现了良好的语义、概念、习惯用法和内容等效性。对于大多数变量,重测信度为良好至非常好(k = 0.60-0.81)。内部一致性表现出良好至可接受(Kuder-Richardson 20(KR20)= 0.737-0.873)。在相关区域有或没有肌肉骨骼问题的参与者表现出显著更高的残疾/疼痛,表明具有良好的结构有效性。关于可行性,问卷的平均响应时间为 6 分钟(±2)。
结果表明,西班牙 SNQ 是一种可靠、有效且可行的筛查工具,可用于评估音乐家的肌肉骨骼问题。
