| Summary: | Objective: The purpose of this study is to conduct the validity and reliability study of Turkish version of the Landing Error Scoring System-Real Time (LESS-RT) and submit it for the use of relevant researchers.
Material and Methods: The study was designed as a validity study in the quantitative research design. The ten-item directive had been translated into Turkish. After the translation, an evaluation was performed in a group of 13 participants to determine comprehensibility, language and cultural conformity assessment and to receive expert opinion. Receiving the feedback with the completion of the evaluation, the Turkish version was finalized and submitted for implementation. Sixty-two participants (%40.3 male, %59.7 female) were subjected to the jump test in order to evaluate the Turkish version by two raters. The video recordings were obtained from the front and side during the jumps.
Results: The mean Item-Content Validity Index (I-CVI) was 0.91 (lowest 0.84; highest 1.00). The lowest expert proportion relevant for the scale item (S-CVI) was 0.80 and the highest was 1.00 and the Scale-Level Index/Average (S-CVI / Ave) value was 0.91. There are no differences between the first rater’s (test: 6.84 ± 1.85; retest: 6.94 ± 1.93; p˃ 0.05) and the second rater’s (test: 6.37 ± 1.46; retest: 6.37 ± 1.72; p˃ 0.05) error scores (p˃ 0.05). The reliability level was found to be good both in intra-rater (Rater1 ICC: 0.81, Rater2 ICC: 0.71) and inter-rater (Rater1,2 ICC: 0.73).
Conclusion: The validity and reliability of the LESS-RT in Turkish were accomplished. Thus, a practical system that facilitates the detection of landing errors is presented for the use of Turkish researchers and health professionals. |
