Sažetak
Objective: To perform cross-cultural adaptation and to test psychometric properties of the 8-item CPQ in 11-14 year-olds: stepwise-regression (RSF:8) and item-impact (ISF:8) short-forms. Materials and Methods: The sample included 237 orthodontic patients aged 11-14 at two University Dental Clinics in Croatia. Structural and construct validity, reliability and responsiveness were assessed. Intraoral examination included an assessment of dental caries and malocclusion severity. Results: Two domains instead of originally suggested four are more appropriate for the assessment of oral healthrelated quality of life (OHRQoL) in both ISF:8 and RSF:8 (60.05% and 52.24% variance; α=0.56-0.85). Oral symptoms and functional limitations from the original instrument were grouped in one dimension
that defines oral function, while emotional and social well-being were grouped in a dimension of psychosocial well-being. Instruments are able to detect differences between subjects with low and high caries and malocclusion severity. They were stable when there were no changes in oral conditions, while it was possible to detect differences induced by correction of malocclusion following orthodontic treatment (p<0.05). Conclusion: Both 8-item CPQ demonstrated good psychometric properties but pointed to the fact that two domains instead of four are more appropriate for the assessment of OHRQoL in 11-14 year-olds.
