Abstract

Purpose: The Ageing Voice Index is a valid and reliable tool for assessing the impact of changes in the voice of older adults. Our aim is to adapt the Aging Voice Index with Turkish older adults and test its reliability and validity to create the Turkish Aging Voice Index.

Method: A total of 206 participants were included in the study. Construct validity, criterion validity, test-retest reliability, internal consistency, and confirmatory factor analysis were investigated. Finally, the sensitivity and specificity of the Turkish Aging Voice Index were calculated using receiver operating characteristics curve analysis.

Result: The Turkish Aging Voice Index has excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha= 0.971). A high intraclass correlation for test-retest reliability was found (ICC = 0.953, p < 0.001). Construct validity of the Turkish Aging Voice Index was found to be statistically significant (p < 0.001) by comparing the mean Turkish Aging Voice Index scores between the study and control groups. For criterion validity, a statistically positive high correlation was found between the mean scores of the Turkish Aging Voice Index and the Turkish version of the Voice Handicap Index-10 (r = 0.854, p < 0.001). The cut-off value of the Turkish Aging Voice Index was 15.50 with a sensitivity of 85.01% and a specificity of 84.8%.

Conclusion: The Turkish Aging Voice Index is a valid and reliable tool for elderly patients with voice disorders. A score >15.50 is an indicator of voice problems in the older population.

土耳其版老年语音指数的可靠性和有效性。
目的:老龄化嗓音指数是评估老年人嗓音变化影响的有效而可靠的工具。我们的目的是根据土耳其老年人的情况调整老龄化嗓音指数,并测试其可靠性和有效性,以创建土耳其老龄化嗓音指数:方法:共有 206 名参与者参与研究。方法:研究共纳入 206 名参与者,对结构效度、标准效度、重测信度、内部一致性和确认性因子分析进行了调查。最后,利用接收器操作特性曲线分析法计算了土耳其老年声音指数的敏感性和特异性:结果:土耳其老年语音指数具有良好的内部一致性(Cronbach's alpha=0.971)。结果:土耳其老龄化嗓音指数具有良好的内部一致性(Cronbach's alpha= 0.971),测试-再测试的可靠性具有较高的类内相关性(ICC=0.953,p 结论:土耳其老龄化嗓音指数是一个有效的测试工具,它可以帮助我们了解土耳其老龄化嗓音指数:土耳其老年嗓音指数是一种针对老年嗓音障碍患者的有效而可靠的工具。得分大于 15.50 分表明老年人群存在嗓音问题。

期刊介绍: International Journal of Speech-Language Pathology is an international journal which promotes discussion on a broad range of current clinical and theoretical issues. Submissions may include experimental, review and theoretical discussion papers, with studies from either quantitative and/or qualitative frameworks. Articles may relate to any area of child or adult communication or dysphagia, furthering knowledge on issues related to etiology, assessment, diagnosis, intervention, or theoretical frameworks. Articles can be accompanied by supplementary audio and video files that will be uploaded to the journal’s website. Special issues on contemporary topics are published at least once a year. A scientific forum is included in many issues, where a topic is debated by invited international experts.
