Popis: Background:Psoriatic Arthritis Quality of Life (PsAQoL) questionnaire was developed to measure quality of life (QoL) in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) (1).Objectives:The aim of the study was to assess validity and psychometric properties of the PsAQoL questionnaire.Methods:The translation-back translation method by a bilingual panel was used to translate the original PsAQoL into Turkish (2). Face and content validities were evaluated via cognitive debriefing interviews with 10 PsA patients. Then, patients with PsA according to CASPAR criteria were recruited to assess feasibility, missing data, floor and ceiling effect, reliability, and construct validity. Reliability was assessed by internal consistency. Construct validity was investigated by convergent and divergent validity by assessing the PsAQoL’s relations with QoL and non-QoL parameters. For this purpose, demographics, clinical characteristics (shown in Table 1), survey data including PsAQoL, Short form 36, visual analog scales for pain and fatigue, Health Assessment Questionnaire, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale results were recorded.Results:One hundred and sixty-two patients were recruited and 74 of them had axial PsA. Cognitive debriefing showed the Turkish version of PsAQoL to be clear, understandable, and relevant. It was easy to complete and calculate, with the 3 minutes and 20 seconds, respectively. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for internal consistency was 0.930. The questionnaire presented no floor or ceiling effect (Conclusion:The Turkish version of the PsAQoL is a valid and disease-specific instrument with good psychometric characteristics to assess PsA-specific QoL.References:[1]McKenna SP, Doward LC, Whalley D, Tennant A, Emery P, Veale DJ.
