About This Measure
About the Validation of this Measure
Country where validated:
Turkey
Content validity:
Two native Turkish speakers translated the original English REALD-30 into Turkish. The two versions were then synthesized and back translated to ensure cultural equivalence. Next, an expert committee of biostatisticians, oral health professionals, linguists, and translators developed a "pre-final" version, which was then pilot-tested among a convenience sample of 35 adult dental patients.
Reliability (Cronbach Alpha):
0.91
