Psychometric validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the questionnaire for urinary incontinence diagnosis in women with urinary incontinence.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Questionnaire for Urinary Incontinence Diagnosis (QUID), which was developed for women with urinary incontinence.

Methods

This cross-sectional, methodological study included 600 female participants aged 18 years and above with Turkish reading and writing skills. Psychometric methods comprised correlation analysis, internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha), test-retest reliability, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The QUID, King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ), and Incontinence Severity Index (ISI) were administered consecutively to assess construct validity and diagnostic performance. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05.
