About

The aim of this study was to improve the cultural adaptation and Turkish version of the The Physical Activity Scale for Individuals With Physical Disabilities (PASIPD) and to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of PASIPD in individuals with spinal cord injury. PASIPD, which consists of 13 questions, will be adapted to Turkish by translation and back translation method. The study included 47 wheelchair-dependent patients over the age of 18 who were able to read and write Turkish (26 females, 21 males). In order to determine the reliability and internal consistency of PASIPD, item-total correlation, if item deleted cronbach alpha coefficient and cronbach alpha coefficient of the whole scale will be calculated. Test-retest method will be used for the stability of the scale. In the test-retest method, the scale will be re-applied to the same people with 7-day intervals. Pearson correlation analysis will be performed between the first test and the second test total and sub-parameters after 1 week. Test-retest reliability will be determined using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). In the validity test of PASIPD; construct validity and criterion validity will be used. Test of construct validity; factor analysis and convergent and discriminant validity methods. The Barthel Index of Activities of Daily Living and Functional Independence Measure (FIM); World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Abbreviated Version (WHOQOL-BREF), Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) and Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique (CHART-SF) will be used to convergent and discriminant validity. Manual Wheelchair Propulsion Tests will be used to demonstrate criterion validity.
