NCT04443374 - The Turkish Version of the Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire (SIMPAQ) | Crick

Overview

The Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire (SIMPAQ) was originally developed in English to assess physical activity level particularly people with mental illnesses. The purpose of this study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the SIMPAQ into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties.

The Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire (SIMPAQ) was originally developed in English to assess physical activity level particularly people with mental illnesses. The purpose of this study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the SIMPAQ into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties. Eighty individuals with mental illnesses (major depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, alcohol and substance addiction) will include. For cross-cultural adaptation and validation procedure, developers' manual in the official site will be followed (http://www.simpaq.org/). Within a 5-to-7-day period after the first assessment, the participants completed the Turkish version of the SIMPAQ to evaluate test-retest reliability. Cronbach's alpha (α) was used to assess internal consistency. The correlations with the Turkish version of the International Physical Activity-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) and Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and Turkish version of the DSM-5 Self-Rated Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Scale-Adult Version (DSM XC) will determine to check the validity.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire

The SIMPAQ is a reliable and valid tool to assess physical activity in people with mental illness. The 5-item SIMPAQ was designed to capture activity over a representative 24-h period from the previous 7-days. Time spent in bed overnight, time sedentary, including napping, time spent walking, time spent exercising and time engaged in incidental activity are questioned and the sum of them should be approximately 24 h. This structure of the SIMPAQ provides interviewers to understand under or over-reporting. For an estimate of total self-reported moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) time, time spent walking and exercising were combined to provide total MVPA (hours per week).

Time frame: Baseline (First assessment)

Time frame: Within a 5-to-7-day period after the first assessment (Second assessment)

International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form

International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) is a self-report questionnaire that assesses PA in the last 7 days. IPAQ-SF provides information on walking, moderate and vigorous activities and time spent sitting, within a week.

Time frame: Baseline (First assessment)

Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale

Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) is a valid 18-item quantitative scale for assessing psychopathology and its severity. Each item is measured on a five-point scale (0 = none to 4 = very severe), with lower scores meaning a lower severity of the symptom.
