Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: The 6-item Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI-6) is the shortened version of the widely used 19-item FSFI-19, designed for efficient screening of female sexual dysfunction in outpatient settings. However, this shorter FSFI-6 tool has not yet been validated for use in Bangladesh.
UNASSIGNED: The purpose of this study was to culturally adapt and validate the FSFI-6 in Bangla.
UNASSIGNED: The FSFI-6 was translated into Bangla using standard adaptation protocols. We interviewed 100 married, sexually active women aged 18 years and over from the outpatient and psychiatric sex clinic of a psychiatry department. Of these women, 50 were clinically diagnosed with sexual disorders based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition, criteria. After obtaining written informed consent, participants completed a semi-structured questionnaire to provide sociodemographic information and the Bangla-adapted version of the FSFI-6. We assessed reliability and construct validity using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, version 25, along with Classical and Bayesian Instrument Development software.
UNASSIGNED: Study outcomes were internal consistency, factor structure, and sensitivity and specificity.
UNASSIGNED: The study involved 100 participants with a mean ± SD age of 30 ± 5.4 years, ranging from 18 to 48 years. The majority of respondents (54.34%) reported issues related to sexual desire. The overall mean score on the Bangla-adapted FSFI-6 was 18.4 ± 5.4. Reliability analysis showed a high internal consistency, with a Cronbach\'s alpha of 0.887 indicating robust reliability. Both inter-item correlations and item-total correlations were within the acceptable range. A cutoff value of 19 for the FSFI-6 demonstrated high discriminative power, effectively distinguishing between individuals with sexual disorders and those without sexual disorders or with other psychiatric conditions. The sensitivity at this cutoff was 96%, with a specificity of 100%.
UNASSIGNED: The FSFI-6 Bangla version can be used to screen patients for female sexual dysfunction in an outpatient setting.
UNASSIGNED: The internal consistency of this study, indicated by a Cronbach\'s alpha of 0.887, was robust. The instrument is time efficient, user friendly, and well suited for outpatient settings. However, the sampling technique utilized was nonrandomized, confined to a single institution, and did not incorporate assessments for concurrent validity or test-retest reliability.
UNASSIGNED: The FSFI-6 Bangla version showed good reliability and validity in this study, supporting its usability as a valuable tool for screening sexual dysfunction in female.

摘要：
■6项女性性功能指数（FSFI-6）是广泛使用的19项FSFI-19的缩短版本，旨在在门诊环境中有效筛查女性性功能障碍。然而,这个较短的FSFI-6工具尚未在孟加拉国验证使用。
■这项研究的目的是在文化上适应和验证Bangla的FSFI-6。
■使用标准适应协议将FSFI-6翻译成Bangla。我们采访了100位已婚人士,来自精神科门诊和精神病性诊所的18岁及以上的性活跃女性。在这些女人中,根据《精神障碍诊断和统计手册》，50例被临床诊断为性功能障碍，第5版,标准。在获得书面知情同意书后，参与者完成了一份半结构化问卷,以提供社会人口统计信息和Bangla改编版FSFI-6.我们使用社会科学统计软件包评估信度和结构效度，版本25，以及经典和贝叶斯仪器开发软件。
■研究结果是内部一致性，要素结构，敏感性和特异性。
■该研究涉及100名参与者，平均±SD年龄为30±5.4岁，18至48岁不等。大多数受访者（54.34％）报告了与性欲有关的问题。Bangla适应的FSFI-6的总体平均得分为18.4±5.4。可靠性分析具有较高的内部一致性，Cronbach的α为0.887，表明可靠。项目间相关性和项目总相关性均在可接受范围内。FSFI-6的截止值为19显示出高判别力，有效区分有性障碍的人和没有性障碍或其他精神疾病的人。在这个截止点的灵敏度是96%,特异性为100%。
■FSFI-6Bangla版本可用于在门诊环境中筛查患者的女性性功能障碍。
■本研究的内部一致性，克朗巴赫的阿尔法为0.887，表明是稳健的。该仪器具有时间效率，用户友好,非常适合门诊设置。然而,使用的抽样技术是非随机的，局限于一个机构，并且没有纳入并发效度或重测信度的评估。
■FSFI-6Bangla版本在本研究中显示出良好的信度和效度，支持其作为筛查女性性功能障碍的有价值工具的可用性。
