Validity and Reliability of Arabic Version of Extended Aberdeen Spine Pain Scale
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to determine whether the Arabic version of the Extended Aberdeen Spine Pain Scale (EASPS) is a valid and reliable tool for assessing spine-related pain and functional disability in Arabic-speaking adults with nonspecific spinal pain. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the Arabic version of the EASPS a valid instrument for evaluating spine-related pain and disability among Arabic-speaking patients? * Is the Arabic version of the EASPS a reliable instrument with acceptable internal consistency and test-retest reliability? Participants will: * Complete the Arabic version of the Extended Aberdeen Spine Pain Scale (EASPS). * Complete the Arabic version of the Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaire to assess construct validity. * Participate in the cultural adaptation and validation process of the Arabic EASPS. * A subgroup of participants will complete the Arabic EASPS again after 7 days to assess test-retest reliability.
