Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aims of this project are to evaluate the psychometric properties of the German versions of the two performance questionnaires 'Functional Mobility Scale' (FMS) and 'Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire - walking scale' (GFAQ) in children between 6-18 years with a neuromuscular diagnosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The German versions of the two questionnaires 'Functional Mobility Scale' (FMS) and 'Gillette Functional Assessment Questionnaire - walking scale' (GFAQ) are evaluated in terms of construct validity, inter- and intra-rater reliability as well as responsiveness in children with a neuromuscular diagnosis, who absolve an inpatient stay in the rehabilitation center of the University Chilren's Hospital Zurich, Switzerland.
