What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Berg Balance Scale adapted for the Albanian population. It focuses on assessing balance and balance control in elderly individuals aged 50 to 80 years, including those experiencing postural pain and muscular contractions. The study is observational and seeks to ensure the balance scale is culturally and linguistically suitable for this population. The process involves a cross-cultural adaptation following strict international guidelines, including translation and back-translation of the questionnaire. Approximately 200 participants will complete the questionnaire online. Researchers will analyze the data to assess psychometric properties such as stability and homogeneity of the scale. Participants will be involved by completing the balance scale questionnaire online. The main outcome measure is the Albanian Berg Balance Scale, which will be completed in about 10 minutes. The study will collect data to understand balance changes and geriatric assessment factors. Participation is expected to last until the study completion date in early 2026.
