简要总结
Coordination is an essential component of motor control that supports the performance of daily activities and physical function. The Adolescents and Adults Coordination Questionnaire (AAC-Q) is a self-report instrument developed to identify coordination difficulties in individuals aged 16 years and older. However, a validated Turkish version is not currently available. This observational study aims to translate, culturally adapt, and evaluate the psychometric properties, including validity and reliability, of the Turkish version of the AAC-Q in Turkish-speaking adults. Participants will complete the Turkish AAC-Q together with established measures of executive functioning, coordination, balance, manual dexterity, reaction time, and cognitive performance to assess construct and criterion validity. Test-retest reliability will also be evaluated.
详细描述
Coordination is a fundamental motor control ability that enables individuals to perform purposeful, accurate, and efficient movements during daily activities. Reliable assessment of coordination is important for identifying motor difficulties, planning rehabilitation, and monitoring treatment outcomes in both clinical practice and research.
The Adolescents and Adults Coordination Questionnaire (AAC-Q) is a self-report questionnaire developed to evaluate coordination difficulties in adolescents and adults. Although the questionnaire has demonstrated satisfactory psychometric properties in its original language, no validated Turkish version is currently available.
This prospective observational study aims to translate and culturally adapt the AAC-Q into Turkish and to evaluate its psychometric properties in Turkish-speaking adults. The adaptation process will include forward translation, backward translation, expert review, and pilot testing. The Turkish version of the questionnaire will subsequently undergo comprehensive psychometric evaluation.
Participants aged 18 to 35 years will complete the Turkish AAC-Q together with the Adult Executive Functioning Inventory. Coordination and motor performance will be assessed using the Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test, Star Excursion Balance Test, Nine-Hole Peg Test, Ruler Drop Test, and Stroop Test. Construct validity, criterion validity, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability will be examined using established statistical methods.

研究组 & 干预措施
Healthy Adults
Healthy university students aged 18 to 35 years who will participate in the cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric validation of the Turkish version of the Adolescents and Adults Coordination Questionnaire (AAC-Q).
结局指标
主要结局
Turkish AAC-Q Score
时间窗: Assessments will be performed at baseline and repeated 7-10 days later to evaluate test-retest reliability.
The Turkish version of the Adolescents and Adults Coordination Questionnaire (AAC-Q) is a 12-item self-report questionnaire designed to assess coordination difficulties in adolescents and adults. Each item is scored on a 5-point Likert scale, with higher scores indicating greater coordination difficulties.
Adult Executive Functioning Inventory (ADEXI)
时间窗: Assessments will be performed at baseline
Executive functioning will be assessed using the Adult Executive Functioning Inventory (ADEXI), a 14-item self-report questionnaire evaluating working memory and inhibition. Higher scores indicate greater executive functioning difficulties.
次要结局
- Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test(Assessments will be performed at baseline)
- Star Excursion Balance Test(Assessments will be performed at baseline)
- Nine-Hole Peg Test(Assessments will be performed at baseline)
- Ruler Drop Test(Assessments will be performed at baseline)
- Stroop Test(Assessments will be performed at baseline)
