Abstract Introduction Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is a disorder that can have devastating and long lasting effects on a person’s medical, mental and psychosocial well-being, thus negatively impacting quality of life. There is currently no validated dysphagia-specific quality of life instrument in Norway. This project aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the culturally adapted Norwegian version of SWAL-QOL (Nor-SWAL-QOL). Methods The original SWAL-QOL was translated into Norwegian according the international translation guidelines. A group of 102 persons with OD and a group of 123 healthy controls were recruited to assess the validity and reliability of the Nor-SWAL-QOL. Correlation analysis of the Nor-SWAL-QOL and the Short Form 36 (SF-36) and correlation analysis of OD group and control group Nor-SWAL-QOL subscale scores were computed to determine convergent, discriminant, and known-groups validity which help comprise construct validity. Internal consistency, test-retest reliability and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were computed for reliability. Results Convergent and discriminant validity was demonstrated between Nor-SWAL-QOL subscales and SF-36 domains, and distinguished between persons with and those without oropharyngeal dysphagia on all subscales and on the symptom frequency battery (p |
