SUMMARY
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the involvement of dopaminergic pathways in the basal ganglia. Motor and non-motor symptoms are frequently observed in PD. These symptoms may negatively affect the quality of life of individuals with PD. Therefore, it is recommended to evaluate the quality of life of individuals with PD and plan appropriate treatments. The Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life 7 (PDQoL7) questionnaire is a patient-reported quality of life assessment questionnaire developed specifically for individuals with PD. The questionnaire, which consists of 7 questions in total, evaluates the degree of difficulty the patient has in performing various activities. The aim of this study was to adapt the PDQoL7 questionnaire into Turkish and to establish its validity and reliability.

The study will be conducted in collaboration with Gazi University Faculty of Health Sciences and Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University. The study data will be obtained from individuals diagnosed with PD admitted to the Neurology Outpatient Clinic of Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University Training and Research Hospital. Necessary permissions were obtained from all institutions and questionnaire developers. Since at least 5-10 times the number of items in the questionnaire (7 items) must include at least 5-10 times the number of participants in order to perform factor analysis, a pretest of the questionnaire will be applied to individuals with PD with at least 35-70 participants.
