研究概览
简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish adaptation of the Scale of Food Allergy Anxiety (SOFAA), including both the child-report and parent-report versions. The SOFAA is a validated tool originally developed to assess the specific anxiety related to food allergies. The Turkish versions of the scales will undergo a comprehensive validation process, including assessments of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity.
Participants will include children diagnosed with IgE-mediated food allergies and their primary caregivers. The study will investigate whether the translated scales maintain the original structure and effectively measure food allergy-related anxiety in the Turkish pediatric population. The findings are expected to contribute to clinical assessment practices and research on food allergy-related psychosocial impacts in Turkeyy.

结局指标
主要结局
Internal Consistency of the Turkish Version of the SOFAA-C and SOFAA-P
时间窗: Within 1 week of initial administration
Internal consistency of the Turkish child- and parent-reported versions of the Scale of Food Allergy Anxiety (SOFAA) will be evaluated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. A value of ≥ 0.70 will be considered acceptable.
Construct Validity of the Turkish Version of SOFAA
时间窗: Within 1 week of initial administration
Construct validity of the Turkish version of the SOFAA will be assessed using exploratory and/or confirmatory factor analysis based on responses from children and parents. Factor structure will be compared with the original version.
Test-Retest Reliability of the Turkish Version of SOFAA
时间窗: Approximately 10-14 days after baseline assessment
A subsample of participants will complete the SOFAA again after a 10-14 day interval. Test-retest reliability will be evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).
