Validation And Turkish Cross-Cultural Adaptation of Treatment Expectation Questionnaire (TEX-Q) Tool

The first step is the translation from the original language to the other language. The ideal target in the translation phase is to use people who are familiar with the structure of the original language and who are familiar with the language. Two forward translation and one reverse translation methods will be applied after obtaining the written permission of the authors. After the completion of this phase, the terminological differences arising from the translators in the translation process from the original language to Turkish will be collected and discussed on the questions. The cultural adaptation study will be terminated by determining the equivalence between the Turkish version of the index and the English original. The final version of the questionnaire and the necessary changes will be arranged specific to the investigator's society and the authors of the original questionnaire will be consulted and the questionnaire will be finalized.

The scale will be applied by face-to-face technique and convergent (moderate-high correlation with optimism measure) and distant (low correlation with depression and anxiety measures) validity will be evaluated.

The reliability of the materials will be tested with Cronbach alpha.
