Abstract
Background/aim: The Profile Fitness Mapping neck questionnaire (ProFitMap-neck) is a reliable and valid assessment instrumentfor measuring neck-related symptoms and functional limitations in people with neck pain, but a Turkish version of it had not beenpublished. The purpose of this study was to investigate the adaptation, validity, and intrarater reliability of the Turkish version of theProFitMap-neck.Materials and methods: Two hundred and thirty-five individuals with chronic neck pain were enrolled in the study. Intrarater reliabilitywas assessed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach’s alpha was calculated for internal consistency. For concurrentvalidity, ProFitMap-neck scores were compared with neck disability index (NDI) and visual analoguepain scale (VAS) scores usingPearson’s correlation coefficient analysis. The ProFitMap-neck, NDI, VAS, and short form health survey (SF-36) were administered toall participants.Results: For intrarater analysis, ICC ranged between 0.72 and 0.84. The total score was 0.83, indicating excellent reliability. Thecorrelation of the ProFitMap-neck with NDI and VAS was 0.71 and 0.68, respectively, indicating good concurrent validity.Conclusion: The ProFitMap-neck is an evaluation instrument with sufficient validity and reliability to be used for evaluating Turkishpatients with neck pain. Use of this scale can reveal how, how often, and how much these patients’ pain affects their symptoms andfunctional activities.
