Urinary incontinence (UI) is a prevalent condition that significantly impacts the quality of life. This study aimed to validate the Hungarian version of the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (ICIQ-FLUTS) and assess its psychometric properties in the context of the Hungarian population. A cross-sectional study involved 215 Hungarian-speaking women with a mean age of 67.6 ± 11.9 years. Participants were administered both the ICIQ-FLUTS and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF). The psychometric analysis included test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and internal consistency. The Hungarian version of ICIQ-FLUTS demonstrated strong psychometric properties. The test-retest reliability analysis showed a high intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC = 0.921), indicating excellent agreement between measurements over a 14-day interval. Convergent validity was supported by a strong positive correlation between the total scores of ICIQ-FLUTS and ICIQ-SF (ρ = 0.686, < 0.001), emphasizing shared underlying constructs. Furthermore, the ICIQ-FLUTS questionnaire exhibited good internal consistency, with a Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.862. This study successfully validated the Hungarian version of the ICIQ-FLUTS questionnaire and demonstrated its robust psychometric properties. This tool will enable healthcare practitioners and researchers to effectively assess and address UI's impact on their quality of life.
尿失禁（UI）是一种普遍存在的疾病，会对生活质量产生重大影响。本研究旨在验证匈牙利语版的《国际尿失禁咨询问卷 - 女性下尿路症状》（ICIQ - FLUTS），并在匈牙利人群背景下评估其心理测量特性。一项横断面研究纳入了215名讲匈牙利语的女性，平均年龄为67.6±11.9岁。参与者同时接受了ICIQ - FLUTS和《国际尿失禁咨询问卷简表》（ICIQ - SF）的测试。心理测量分析包括重测信度、收敛效度和内部一致性。匈牙利语版的ICIQ - FLUTS表现出强大的心理测量特性。重测信度分析显示组内相关系数较高（ICC = 0.921），表明在14天的间隔内测量结果具有极好的一致性。ICIQ - FLUTS和ICIQ - SF总分之间的强正相关（ρ = 0.686，<0.001）支持了收敛效度，强调了共同的潜在结构。此外，ICIQ - FLUTS问卷表现出良好的内部一致性，克朗巴赫α系数为0.862。本研究成功验证了匈牙利语版的ICIQ - FLUTS问卷，并证明了其强大的心理测量特性。该工具将使医疗从业者和研究人员能够有效地评估和解决尿失禁对生活质量的影响。
