“…The NBQ was adapted by Bolton & Humphreys (13) from the Bournemouth Questionnaire, initially developed in English for patients with low-back pain. The NBQ has been shown to have acceptable psychometric properties for use in clinical and research settings (13) and it has been translated and validated in German (14), Dutch (15), French (16) and Italian (17). Recent evidence regarding its internal consistency (14,17), content validity (17,18), structural validity (17) and interpretability (17) are promising, even though they still need to be critically evaluated.…”

Instead, evidence reporting that the NBQ has high reliability (15), substantial responsiveness and construct validity (13) are considered limited because these positive results have been found in studies of fair methodological quality (3,4).…”

“…The comparison of the MIC of ProFitMap-neck with MIC of other neck-specific questionnaires beside NDI is hampered by the low number of studies and differing methodology to determine MIC. For comparable studies, Neck Pain and Disability Scale [41, 42] and Neck Bournemouth Questionnaire [54] had MIC of similar magnitude as ProFitMap-neck, whereas MIC reported for the Core Outcome Measure Index summary score was higher (20 and 27 %) [55, 56]. …”

Responsiveness and minimal important change for the ProFitMap-neck questionnaire and the Neck Disability Index in women with neck–shoulder pain

PurposeThe aim was to determine the responsiveness and minimal important change (MIC) of the questionnaire ProFitMap-neck that measures symptoms and functional limitations in women with neck pain. The same measurement properties were determined for Neck Disability Index (NDI) for comparison purposes. MethodsLongitudinal data were derived from two randomized controlled trials, including 103 and 120 women with non-specific neck pain, with questionnaire measurements performed before and after interventions. Sensitivity and specificity to discriminate between improved and not or little changed participants, based on categorization of a global rating of change scale (GRCS), were determined for the ProFitMap-neck indices and NDI by using area under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC). Correlations between the GRCS anchor and change scores of the questionnaires were also used to assess responsiveness. The change score that showed the highest combination of sensitivity and specificity was set for MIC.ResultsThe ProFitMap-neck indices showed similar responsiveness as NDI with AUC exceeding 0.70 (Range: ProFitMap-neck, 0.74–0.83; NDI, 0.75–0.86). The MIC in the two samples ranged between 6.6 and 13.6 % for ProFitMap-neck indices and 5.2 and 6.3 % for NDI. Both questionnaires had significant correlations with GRCS (Spearman’s rho 0.47–0.72).ConclusionsValidity of change scores was endorsed for the ProFitMap-neck indices and NDI with adequate ability to discriminate between improved and not or little changed participants. Values of minimal important change were presented.

“…However, some methodological studies of cross-cultural adaptation and translation do not report the sociodemographic of their targeted population and focus solely on the gender [44] and other aspects of the study [45]. These studies demonstrate that the emphasis on methodological studies is the same as that of the method used in cross-cultural adaptations [46–48], which, in the present study, was the guideline by Beaton et al (2007) [30]. Differences were identified concerning the sociodemographic characteristics among the targeted population of this study and the original DTCQ-8 article, education, type of consumed psychoactive substances and employment status.…”

BackgroundThe Drug-Taking Confidence Questionnaire evaluates a drug user’s confidence in his or her ability to resist the urge to consume psychoactive substances in high-risk situations. This study’s objective was to develop a cross-cultural adaptation of the eight-item version of the Drug-Taking Confidence Questionnaire (DTCQ-8) for all drugs except alcohol and to verify its content validity and reliability in a pre-test stage.MethodsThe following steps were taken: (1) implementation of the translation protocol and transcultural adaptation, (2) validation of the adapted content, and (3) assessment of reliability. Nine experts participated in the process of adaptation, and the trial’s sample comprised 40 drug users in treatment at a Psychosocial Care Center for Alcohol and Other Drugs (CAPSad).ResultsThe average indices of semantic agreement (0.989; 0.989; 1.00), idiomatic (0.967), experiential (0.956), conceptual (0.978) and content validity with respect to language clarity (0.972), practice relevance (0.958), theoretical relevance (0.958) and theoretical dimension (1.00) showed that the adaption was successful. The mean total score of the DTCQ-8 version for other drugs was 477.00 + 234.27-SD, and 57.5 % of the users were classified as having moderate self-efficacy to resist the urge to use drugs in high-risk situations. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.889 for the complete instrument and 0.863–0.890 between items.ConclusionsThe DTCQ-8 version for other drugs proved to be easy to use and understand, and its process of adaptation was satisfactory for use in the Brazilian context. In this sample, the questionnaire was adequate to measure users’ self-efficacy to resist the urge to consume these substances in high-risk situations.
