Özet
This study aimed to evaluated the reliability and validity of the Turkish adaptation of the Questionnaire of Physiotherapeutic Specific Exercises of Scoliosis (QPSSE). Fifty-one individuals who had been performing scoliosis-specific exercises (PSSEs) for at least two months completed the QPSSE. Validity was analyzed by correlating the QPSSE with the Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) questionnaire and the Scoliosis Japanese Questionnaire-27 (SJ-27). The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to estimate test-retest reliability. The QPSSE demonstrated excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha coefficients were .90 and .93) and test-retest reliability (ICC = .92, 95% confidence interval [.86-.95]). The QPSSE also demonstrated strong construct validity with the SRS-22 (r = -.57) and SJ-27 (r = -.66) total scores. The Turkish QPSSE is a valid and reliable questionnaire for evaluating the physical functioning, self-image, PSSEs, psychosocial functioning, cognitive functioning, compliance, motivation, and pain-related physiotherapeutic specific exercises of scoliosis in idiopathic scoliosis.
