Transcultural adaptation to Spain of the CDPQOL questionnaire specific for coeliac children.

This study aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt, and validate the CDPQOL questionnaire, a coeliac disease (CD)-specific paediatric health-related quality of life (HRQoL) instrument (CDPQOL), in Spanish children with CD. The CDPQOL questionnaire has two versions for children aged 8-12 and 13-18. Translation and linguistic validation were performed following an international consensus process. Internal consistency was calculated using Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients, and convergent validity was assessed with average variance extracted (AVE). Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA), when necessary, were carried out to assess the construct validity. A total of 235 children were included. In the 8-12 age group, a change in the distribution of items to a new structure of three dimensions (negative emotions, food feelings and social interaction) was required. In this new model, CFA supported the fit of the model (χ2/gl = 1.79, RMSEA = 0.077 (IC 95% 0.05-0.100), CFI = 0.969, TLI 0.960, SRMR = 0.081) and Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients were > 0.7 in all three dimensions. In the 13-18 age group, CFA showed that all fit indexes were acceptable (χ2/gl = 1.702, RMSEA = 0.102 (IC 95% 0.077-0.127), p < 0.001, CFI = 0.956, TLI = 0.947, SRMR = 0.103) and Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients were > 0.7 in all three dimensions, except for uncertainty dimension.    Conclusions: The Spanish version of the CDPQOL questionnaire is a useful instrument to assess quality of life in coeliac children whose native language was Spanish spoken in Spain, with changes in item distribution in the younger age group questionnaire. What is Known: • The first specific questionnaire for coeliac children, Dutch Coeliac Disease Questionnaire (CDDUX), which focuses on diet, was translated into Spanish and validated allowing to evaluate the HRQoL of Spanish coeliac children. • Spanish Children and parents feel the disease had no substantial negative impacts on patient HRQoL using this questionnaire, similar to that observed with other countries. What is New: • The age specific for CD children (CDPQOL) was elaborated in the USA and focuses on other aspects not evaluated by CDDUX such as emotional and social issues related to living with CD. • The CDPQOL was translated into Spanish and validated allowing it to be used to assess Spanish coeliac children's QoL.

Transcultural adaptation and validation of IMPACT-III and IMPACT-III-P in Spanish families: a multicenter study from SEGHNP.

IMPACT-III and IMPACT-III-P are health-related quality of life (HRQoL) questionnaires for patients with pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (p-IBD) and their parents/caregivers. We aimed to perform a transcultural adaptation and validation for the Spanish context. Translation, back-translation, and evaluation of the questionnaires were performed by an expert committee and 12 p-IBD families. We recruited p-IBD patients aged 10-17 and their parents/caregivers. Utility, content, and face validity were considered. Validation was performed with Cronbach's alpha coefficient and varimax rotation. We confirmed the adequacy of the factor analysis using Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) and Bartlett's sphericity tests. A confirmatory factor analysis was performed using the following goodness indexes: chi-square, Normed Fit Index (NFI), Root Mean Square Error of Approximation index (RMSEA), Standardized Root Mean Square Residual (SRMR), and Comparative Fit Index (CFI). The correlation coefficient between IMPACT-III and IMPACT-III-P was analyzed. We included 370 patients and 356 parents/caregivers (37 hospitals). Both questionnaires had good content and face validity and were considered user-friendly. The KMO measure (0.8998 and 0.9228, respectively) and Bartlett's sphericity test (p-value < 0.001 for both) confirmed the adequacy of the factor analysis. The 4-factor model, complying with Kaiser's criterion, explained 89.19% and 88.87% of the variance. Cronbach's alpha (0.9123 and 0.9383) indicated excellent internal consistency. The CFA showed an adequate fit (NFI 0.941 and 0.918, RMSEA 0.048 and 0.053, SRMR 0.037 and 0.044, and CFI 0.879 and 0.913). The correlation coefficient was excellent (0.92). The SEGHNP versions of IMPACT-III and IMPACT-III-P are valid and reliable instruments for Spanish p-IBD families. • IMPACT-III and parent-proxy IMPACT-III (IMPACT-III-P) are useful questionnaires for assessing health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (p-IBD) patients and their parents/caregivers and have been translated and validated in several countries. • To date, no transcultural adaptation and validation of these questionnaires have been published for Spanish patients with p-IBD and their families. • This is the first transcultural adaptation and validation of IMPACT-III and IMPACT-III-P for Spanish p-IBD families. • These are valid and reliable instruments for assessing HRQoL in Spanish families of patients with p-IBD.

Translation, cross-cultural adaptation, and psychometric validation of the Malay version of the Assessment of Quality of Life-6 Dimensions (Malay-AQoL-6D) instrument among Malaysians living with chronic heart failure.

This study aimed to translate and culturally adapt the Assessment of Quality of Life (AQoL)-6D into Malay (Malay-AQoL-6D), and assesses the instrument's acceptability, reliability, and validity among Malaysians living with chronic heart failure (HF). The translation and cross-cultural adaptation process adhered to international guidelines. The Malay-AQoL-6D underwent content and face validity assessments via expert review, and pretesting among healthy individuals and patients with chronic conditions. Subsequent psychometric validation utilised clinico-sociodemographic data and paired AQoL-6D and EQ-5D-5L data from a health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) survey involving Malay-speaking patients with HF, which encompassed assessments of Malay-AQoL-6D acceptability, internal consistency and test-retest reliability, as well as its construct, concurrent, convergent and divergent, and known-group validity. The Malay-AQoL-6D was deemed acceptable among clinicians and local patients, achieving a 90.8% completion rate among 314 patients surveyed. The instrument demonstrated strong content validity (item-level content validity index [CVI]: 0.83-1.00, average CVI: 0.98), internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha: 0.72-0.89; MacDonald's omega: 0.82-0.90, excluding the Senses dimension), and test-retest reliability (average intraclass correlation coefficients: 0.79-0.95). Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the instrument's two-level, six-factor structure (Satorra-Bentler [SB]-scaled χ2(df: 164): 283.67, p-value < 0.001; root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA]: 0.051; comparative fix index [CFI]: 0.945, Tucker-Lewis index [TLI]: 0.937; standardised root mean-squared error [SRMR]: 0.058). The Malay-AQoL-6D's concurrent validity was evident through its good agreement with EQ-5D-5L. Multiple hypothesis tests further affirmed its construct and known-group validity. The Malay-AQoL-6D's psychometric properties remained consistent across different missing data techniques. The findings suggest that Malay-AQoL-6D could be a culturally acceptable, reliable, and valid HRQoL measure for quantifying HRQoL among the local HF population. Future studies are necessary to further validate the instrument against other measures and confirm the instrument's test-retest reliability and responsiveness, which are possible with the availability of the Malay-AQoL-6D.
