Abstract The Young Adult Burn Outcome Questionnaire (YABOQ) is a validated, English-language patient-reported outcome assessment of young adults’ recovery from burn injury across 15 scale domains. We evaluated the cross-cultural validity of a newly developed Spanish version of the YABOQ. Secondary data from English- and Spanish-speaking burn survivors (17 to 30 years of age) were obtained from the Multicenter Benchmarking Study. We conducted classic psychometric analyses and evaluated the measurement equivalence of the English and Spanish YABOQs in logistic and ordinal logistic regression differential item functioning analyses. All multi-item scales in the Spanish YABOQ demonstrated adequate reliability except the Pain and Itch scales. One item in the Perceived Appearance scale showed differential item functioning across English- and Spanish-speaking burn survivors, but the observed differential item functioning had no clinically significant impact on scale-level Perceived Appearance scores. Our findings support the cross-cultural validity of the YABOQ Physical Function, Perceived Appearance, Sexual Function, Emotion, Family Function, Family Concern, Satisfaction with Symptom Relief, Satisfaction with Role, Work Reintegration and Religion scales among English- and Spanish-speaking young adult burn survivors. This work supports the use of these English and Spanish YABOQ scales to assess the effect of therapeutic interventions on young adults’ burn outcomes in pooled analyses and to assess disparities in young adults’ burn outcomes across language groups.

The Relationship

The purpose of the present study was to test the cross-cultural validity of the relationship found in Western samples between birth order and age at marriage. Data on birth order and actual age at marriage were obtained through individual interviews with 84 Arab Moslem wives in Damascus, while data on birth order and ideal best-marriage-ages were obtained from a sample of 142 undergraduate Arab students at the American University of Beirut, consisting of 74 Christians and 68 Moslems. In general, the results showed no significant differences in mean actual ages at marriage between firstborn and later born wives or husbands. Furthermore, regardless of sex, no significant differences were found between firstborn and later born ideal best-marriage-ages. These findings throw doubt on the relationship found previously between birth order and age at marriage.
