■疼痛敏感性问卷(PSQ)是临床实践中评估疼痛敏感性的可靠且有效的自我报告工具。PSQ已被翻译,已验证,跨文化适应多种语言。然而,已验证的阿拉伯语版本的PSQ不可用。因此,这项研究旨在翻译,验证,并跨文化地将PSQ的英文版改编为阿拉伯语。
■根据国际准则,PSQ的英文版被翻译并在文化上被改编成阿拉伯语。在119名患有不同持续性肌肉骨骼(MSK)疼痛的患者中测试了PSQ-阿拉伯语(PSQ-A)最终版本的心理测量特性。
■克朗巴赫对于PSQ-A-total的α,PSQ-A-中等,和PSQ-C-minor分别为0.81、0.79和0.76。PSQ-A-total的平均值,PSQ-A-中等,PSQ-C-minor评分为5.07(±1.28),5.64(±2.07),4.50(±0.50)。用PSQ-A-total的类间相关系数测量的68名受试者的重测信度为0.80,PSQ-A-中度为0.74,PSQ-A-小调为0.77。PSQ-A-total和PSQ-A-minor与疼痛灾难量表(PCS)呈正相关(r=0.15,0.17);P≤0.05),分别。PSQ-A-total,PSQ-A-中等,和PSQ-A-minor与简短疼痛量表(BPI)-疼痛评分呈正相关(r=0.47,0.43,0.45;P≤0.01),分别与BPI疼痛干扰评分(r=0.37、0.33、0.34;P≤0.01),分别。
■这项研究表明,PSQ-A是评估阿拉伯人群中具有疼痛敏感性的个体的可靠且有效的工具。建议进一步研究以检查PSQ-A对实验性疼痛敏感性措施的同时有效性。
UNASSIGNED: The Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire (PSQ) is a reliable and valid self-reported tool for the assessment of pain sensitivity in clinical practice. The PSQ has been translated, validated, and cross-culturally adapted into multiple languages. However, a validated Arabic version of the PSQ is not available. Thus, this study aims to translate, validate, and cross-culturally adapt the English version of the PSQ into the Arabic language.
UNASSIGNED: The English version of the PSQ was translated and culturally adapted into Arabic following international guidelines. The psychometric properties of the final version of the PSQ-Arabic (PSQ-A) were tested among 119 patients with different persistent musculoskeletal (MSK) pain.
UNASSIGNED: The Cronbach\'s α for the PSQ-A-total, PSQ-A-moderate, and PSQ-C-minor were 0.81, 0.79, and 0.76, respectively. The means for the PSQ-A-total, PSQ-A-moderate, and PSQ-C-minor scores were 5.07 (±1.28), 5.64 (±2.07), and 4.50 (±0.50). The test-retest reliability measured with the interclass correlation coefficient for 68 subjects was 0.80 for the PSQ-A-total, 0.74 for the PSQ-A-moderate, and 0.77 for the PSQ-A-minor. The PSQ-A-total and the PSQ-A-minor showed positive significant correlations with pain catastrophizing scale (PCS) (r = 0.15, 0.17); P ≤ 0.05), respectively. The PSQ-A-total, PSQ-A-moderate, and PSQ-A-minor showed positive significant correlations with the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)-pain scores (r = 0.47, 0.43, 0.45; P ≤ 0.01), respectively and with the BPI-pain interference scores (r = 0.37, 0.33, 0.34; P ≤ 0.01), respectively.
UNASSIGNED: This study shows that the PSQ-A is a reliable and valid tool to assess individuals with pain sensitivity in Arabic populations. Further studies are recommended to examine the concurrent validity of the PSQ-A against experimental pain sensitivity measures.
