Official title:
Development of a Compliance Questionnaire for Therapeutic Home Exercise Program in Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation (CQ-HEPT) Using the Delphi Method
Exercise is a valuable basic treatment method in the field of physiotherapy and rehabilitation. However, the effectiveness of exercise therapy requires the individual to be attentive, compliant, and disciplined. Therefore, it is important to examine the factors that may affect compliance with exercise. The main aim of this study is to develop a questionnaire that can describe individuals' compliance with participation in a home exercise program using the Delphi method and then analyze the psychometric validity and reliability of this questionnaire. The value that the evaluation questionnaire planned to be obtained at the end of such a study will add to exercise science, which is one of the most powerful treatment elements of physiotherapy and rehabilitation discipline, is important.
Exercise is a valuable basic treatment method in the discipline of physiotherapy and rehabilitation. The importance of exercise in maintaining and improving health or in combating diseases and/or injuries has been recognized. However, exercise therapy requires care, compliance, and discipline, otherwise, it is not possible to achieve positive results from this type of treatment. Examining factors that affect adherence to exercise can help understand and resolve issues that may hinder individual participation. The planned aim of this study was to develop a questionnaire that could describe individuals' compliance with participation in a home exercise program using the Delphi method, and then analyze the psychometric validity and reliability of this questionnaire. For this reason, academic physiotherapists or physiotherapists with at least 5 years of clinical experience will be asked to identify questions and details that can assess individuals' compliance with home exercise. Based on their responses, a questionnaire with at least 10 questions will be prepared by the investigators. Then, the appropriateness of the questions of this questionnaire will be examined and presented to the expert opinions again. The participating experts will be asked to rate each item sent to them on a Likert-type scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) whether it should be included in the questionnaire. If there is 80% or more consensus on an item for 4 and 5, the item will be considered to have reached consensus. Once the questionnaire has been created based on the Delphi method, it will be administered as an online questionnaire to 50 volunteer participants who have been given a home exercise program within physiotherapy and rehabilitation treatment and thus the basic psychometric properties of the questionnaire (internal consistency, test-retest reliability) will be analyzed. The evaluation questionnaire planned to be obtained at the end of this study is expected to significantly contribute to the field of exercise science. ;
