The Neck Bournemouth Questionnaire (NBQ) has been translated and validated in a number of languages and has good psychometric properties for assessing neck pain. However, an Urdu translation is currently unavailable.
To translate, cross-culturally adapt, and validate the NBQ into Urdu language (NBQ-U) in patients with nonspecific neck pain (NSNP).
The NBQ was translated and cross-culturally adapted into Urdu using previously described guidelines. The study included 150 Urdu-speaking patients with NSNP and 50 healthy participants. All participants completed the NBQ-U, Urdu version of neck disability index (NDI-U), neck pain and disability scale (NPDS), and numerical pain rating scale (NPRS). After three weeks of physical therapy treatment, the patients completed all of the above-mentioned questionnaires, along with the global rating of change scale. Reliability, validity, and responsiveness were all tested.
The NBQ-U demonstrated excellent test-retest reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient = 0.92) and high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.89). The NBQ-U showed moderate to strong correlations with NDI-U, NPDS, and NPRS ( = 0.67-0.73, < .001). The results revealed a significant difference between patients and healthy controls in the NBQ-U total scores ( < .001). The NBQ-U has a single factor structure with no floor or ceiling effects for individual item scores or total scores. A significant difference in the NBQ-U change scores between the stable and the improved groups ( < .001) confirmed its responsiveness. Furthermore, the NBQ-U change score showed moderate correlations with NDI-U, NPDS, and NPRS change scores ( = 0.52-0.62, < .001).
In Urdu-speaking patients with NSNP, the NBQ-U demonstrated good reliability, validity, and responsiveness.
《颈部伯恩茅斯问卷》（NBQ）已被翻译成多种语言并得到验证，具有良好的评估颈部疼痛的心理测量学特性。然而，目前还没有乌尔都语的翻译版本。
将 NBQ 翻译成乌尔都语（NBQ-U）并进行跨文化适应性验证，以评估非特异性颈部疼痛（NSNP）患者的颈部疼痛。
根据先前描述的指南，将 NBQ 翻译成乌尔都语并进行跨文化适应性调整。研究纳入了 150 名患有 NSNP 的乌尔都语患者和 50 名健康参与者。所有参与者均完成了 NBQ-U、乌尔都语颈部残疾指数（NDI-U）、颈部疼痛和残疾量表（NPDS）以及数字疼痛评分量表（NPRS）。在接受为期 3 周的物理治疗后，患者再次完成了上述所有问卷，以及总体变化量表的评估。测试了可靠性、有效性和反应性。
NBQ-U 具有极好的重测信度（组内相关系数=0.92）和较高的内部一致性（克朗巴赫α=0.89）。NBQ-U 与 NDI-U、NPDS 和 NPRS 呈中度至高度相关（r=0.67-0.73，p<0.001）。NBQ-U 总分在患者和健康对照组之间存在显著差异（p<0.001）。NBQ-U 具有单因素结构，各条目得分或总分均无地板效应或天花板效应。稳定组和改善组之间的 NBQ-U 变化得分存在显著差异（p<0.001），证实了其反应性。此外，NBQ-U 变化得分与 NDI-U、NPDS 和 NPRS 变化得分呈中度相关（r=0.52-0.62，p<0.001）。
在患有 NSNP 的乌尔都语患者中，NBQ-U 具有良好的可靠性、有效性和反应性。
