Detailed Description

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

The Sitting Balance Scale is primarily designed to measure the sitting balance in fragile elderly individuals who cannot stand up. It has also been validated in individuals with stroke and consists of 11 items. Each item is graded from 0 to 4. The highest score that can be obtained is 44. Low test scores indicate impaired sitting balance.

The necessary permissions were obtained from the authors for the Balance of Sitting Scale, whose validity and reliability features will be tested, and the questionnaire was finalized by completing the translation process into Turkish. The basis of the use of special instruments such as scales is to prove their usability in the sample group to which the instrument will be applied. The first step for this is the translation from the original language to another language.

During the translation process into Turkish, two experts who have good command of English translated the questionnaire from English to Turkish. These translations were translated back into Turkish by two native speakers and distant medical subjects. In addition, these translations were re-examined by the researchers and turned into a single form. This form, which was sent to five experts in the field, was checked for content and its suitability for Turkish was evaluated. With the opinion of experts, the scale took its final form.

The study will include individuals over the age of 18 who applied to Kastamonu Training and Research Hospital and diagnosed with ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke.
