Objective.The Social Role Participation Questionnaire (SRPQ) assesses the influence of health on 11 specific roles and 1 general role along 4 dimensions. In this study, a shortened version of the SRPQ (s-SRPQ) was developed in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) to facilitate data collection in clinical studies and practice.Methods.Using data from 246 patients with AS and population controls, the fit of each role to the different participation dimensions, the contribution of each role to the measurement precision, and the correlation between dimensions were evaluated using item response theory. Representation of the 3 participation chapters of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health was ensured. Reliability of each dimension of both versions of the SRPQ was compared by correlating scores to the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) and the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS), and by comparing ability to discriminate between patients and controls and between patients with low and high disease activity (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index ≥ 4).Results.The s-SRPQ, which assesses participation across 6 social roles along 2 dimensions (physical difficulty and satisfaction with performance), was proposed. Both dimensions of the s-SRPQ were highly reliable (r ≥ 0.86) and were shown to have construct validity as indicated by a similar pattern of correlations with the SF-36 and SWLS as the original SRPQ dimensions. Both versions discriminated well between patients and controls and between patients with high versus low disease activity (relative validity ≥ 0.72).Conclusion.The s-SRPQ retains the measurement properties of the original SRPQ and seems useful for measuring the effect of AS on participation.

ObjectivesPeople with spondyloarthritis (SpA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) have identified the importance of understanding how their disease and its treatment impacts on their social roles. This requires a reliable and valid standardised measure, and this study evaluates these measurement properties of the Social Role Participation Questionnaire (SRPQ).Methods109 participants (44 with AS, 65 with PsA) completed questionnaires on demographics, participation measures (SRPQ, Keele Assessment of Participation (KAP), Late Life Disability Instrument (LLDI)), disease severity (physician global) and activity (pain, fatigue, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index), psychological measures (depressive symptoms (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale), Illness Intrusiveness)) and function (Health Assessment Questionnaire, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index). After testing scaling properties, test-retest reliability of the SRPQ was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and hypotheses of construct validity were evaluated using correlation coefficients.ResultsPatients with AS had a mean age of 40 years and 65% were male, whereas patients with PsA had a mean age of 53 years and 63% were male. Although there were some differences between AS and PsA participants in their social role participation, scaling properties were good for both groups. ICCs were >0.90 for the satisfaction subscales of the SRPQ. For construct validity, SRPQ satisfaction subscales were moderately correlated with the KAP and LLDI (0.64–0.78), and less satisfaction was associated with higher disease severity and activity, more depressive symptoms, more illness intrusiveness and more disability (coefficients −0.67 to −0.88).ConclusionSocial role participation is an important concept for people with SpA, and the SRPQ is a reliable and valid measure for use with people with AS and PsA.

Abstract Background: This study aims to investigate the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Brunel Lifestyle Physical Activity Questionnaire (BLPAQ) and examine the cultural adaptation of the questionnaire.Methods: After the translation process, the test-retest reliability of the Turkish version of the questionnaire was analyzed with 24 (31.20±5.0 years old; 50% female) participants (2nd test was done 15 days after the first test). In addition, the validity of the scale was evaluated by the correlation between the BLPAQ and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF) completed by 113 (30.59±5.40 years old; 63.7% Female) participants.Results: A powerful positive and significant correlation was found between the correlation coefficients of the BLPAQ's PPA and UPA subscales between both tests (respectively r=0.96, p<0.01; r=0.87, p<0.01). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found to be 0.77 (quite reliable). The PPA subscale of the BLPAQ was positive with the IPAQ-SF's high-intensity physical activity subscale (r=0.47 p=0.00) and total IPAQ-SF excluding sitting (r=0.50 p=0.00) medium in the direction and low positive correlation with the walking activity subscale (r=0.25 p=0.024). No significant correlation was found between the UPA subdivision of BLPAQ and IPAQ-SF (p>0.05).Conclusion: BLPAQ, adapted into Turkish, is a valid and reliable tool that can be used to determine lifestyle according to physical activity level.

Although there exist many psychological measures in the English language, few of these clinical and research instruments have been translated into French and subsequently validated. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate L'Échelle de Solitude Sociale et Émotionnelle (l'ÉSSÉ). L'ÉSSÉ is a French translation of the short form of the Social and Emotional Loneliness Scale for Adults (SELSA-S; DiTommaso, Brannen, & Best, 2004; DiTommaso & Spinner, 1993). The SELSA is a multidimensional scale which measures the social and emotional components derived from Weiss' (1973) typology of loneliness. A total of 252 French-speaking individuals, aged between 17 and 79 years, completed the new measure. Reliability and validity assessment indicated that l'ÉSSÉ displays excellent psychometric properties.

Abstract In order to explore the student involvement in the student organization, field research was conducted amongst 669 students. The research instrument contained a questionnaire on students’ perception and satisfaction of the student organization; two scales of IPIP NEO (short form): Agreeableness (A) and Conscientiousness (C), and one dimension of the Laponce’s questionnaire: the importance of the social role of the university student. The analysis of the overall obtained data showed a very low level of involvement in student organization and a weak expression of the importance of the social role of the university student. A relatively weak connection between two personality dimensions and the involvement of students in the student organization has been found. A student’s involvement is determined more by the importance of the role, than by personality dimensions.
