Musculoskeletal pain in children and adolescents is prevalent and responsible for high levels of disability. Instruments to measure the presence and impact of pain in this population are needed.
To translate, cross-culturally adapt, then test the measurement properties (structural validity, reliability and construct validity) of a questionnaire (Presence and Impact of Pain in Kids (PIP-Kids) questionnaire) to measure the presence and impact of pain in children and adolescents.
Measurement properties study.
We conducted a measurement properties study. We translated and culturally adapted the PIP-Kids questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese. The structural validity was measured by Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Reliability was measured by Kappa Coefficient. Measurement error was measured by the percentage of agreement. Construct validity was measured by Spearman Correlation.
RESULTS/FINDINGS: We included 656 children and adolescents from public and private schools. During the translation and cross-cultural adaptation no changes to wording were necessary. Structural validity confirmed two domains. Reliability by Kappa Coefficient ranges from 0.20 to 0.68. Measurement error by the percentage of agreement ranged from 60.2 to 92%. Construct validity was confirmed with 80.5% in accordance with prior hypotheses.
The PIP-Kids questionnaire translation and cross-cultural adaptation were adequate. The PIP-Kids questionnaire also has adequate structural validity with two dimensions (presence and impact), fair reliability, good agreement, and adequate construct validity.
儿童和青少年的肌肉骨骼疼痛很常见,导致他们的残疾程度较高。需要有工具来衡量这一人群中疼痛的存在和影响。
翻译、跨文化调适并测试一种用于测量儿童和青少年疼痛存在和影响的问卷(儿童疼痛存在和影响问卷,PIP-Kids)的测量特性(结构有效性、信度和构念有效性)。
测量特性研究。
我们进行了一项测量特性研究。我们将 PIP-Kids 问卷翻译成巴西葡萄牙语,并进行了跨文化调适。结构有效性通过验证性因子分析进行测量。信度通过 Kappa 系数进行测量。测量误差通过一致性百分比进行测量。构念有效性通过 Spearman 相关系数进行测量。
结果/发现:我们纳入了来自公立和私立学校的 656 名儿童和青少年。在翻译和跨文化调适过程中,无需更改措辞。结构有效性确认了两个领域。Kappa 系数的信度范围为 0.20 至 0.68。一致性百分比的测量误差范围为 60.2%至 92%。构念有效性与 80.5%的假设相符。
PIP-Kids 问卷的翻译和跨文化调适是充分的。PIP-Kids 问卷也具有适当的结构有效性,有两个维度(存在和影响)、适度的信度、良好的一致性和适当的构念有效性。
