Data were acquired via sensory testing of olfactory function in 252 adult residents of Central Russia (18–87 years old), including groups from urban and rural areas. The 40-item North American version of the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) was used. The test alternatives were initially translated into Russian by the authors with minor adaptations. We followed the test procedure recommended by the manufacturer and introduced additional tasks. Familiarity with odor names and consistency with the pre-existing concepts for the test odor items were determined using multiple response questions. Intensity ratings for the UPSIT odorants were obtained using 4-point categorical scale for a subset of the participants. Demographic data and other relevant characteristics of the study population were collected using an adapted translation of the questionnaire included with the test. Descriptive statistics of the collected data are presented in this article. The dataset may be reused for evaluating the impact of various factors, such as cultural context, age, sex, environment, and smoking habits, on the perception of specific odorants as well as on general olfactory function (determined by the number of recognized test items). The data may find its application in the clinical practice of otolaryngologists and neurologists who work with the ethno-cultural group in Russia and all over the world. The dataset can also be used for development of new diagnostic tools for olfactory dysfunction. |
