French validation of the Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QoL).

To adapt the SS-QoL into French and test its psychometric properties.Seventy-seven patients from a population-based registry were enrolled 3 months after their stroke.

Internal consistency was assessed by Cronbach's α coefficients, factorial validity by an exploratory factor analysis and external validity by Mann-Whitney test and Spearman's correlations (ρ), comparing SS-QoL scores with those obtained from established scales. Reliability was assessed by intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) and responsiveness by standardized effect siz…
