Investigation of the Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Version of the Dual Task Questionnaire in Older Individuals
Öz
Methods: This study included a total of 118 older adults living in the community. The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was applied by recording the physical characteristics and clinical conditions of the individuals in their initial evaluation. The Turkish version of the Dual Task Questionnaire was translated by experts for its validity and reliability. The Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) were applied together with both motor and cognitive tasks and Tinetti Balance and Gait Assessment Test to test validity in the study. For test-retest reliability, retest was performed by the same physiotherapist 1 week later.
Results: ICC values on the individual test were 0.991 [95% CI; 0.984–0.995 (excellent agreement)]. According to the correlation analysis, a very high correlation (r=0.982) was found between the first assessment and second assessment of Dual Task Questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated to be 0.695. Ten items had correlation values above 0.90, which indicated a very high correlation for intra-rater reliability. A low level of correlation was revealed between the Dual Task Questionnaire and TUG Motor, TUG Cognitive, and Tinetti scales.
Conclusion: The study was indicate that the Turkish version of the Dual Task Questionnaire in older adults was valid and reliable.
