The Icelandic translation of the Bath Adolescent Pain - Parental Impact Questionnaire (BAP-PIQ) : preliminary psychometric properties of multidimensional measures for parents of adolescents with chronic pain to assess the impact on parents

In Iceland there are no measures available that capture, in one scale, the multidimensional negative effects of having a child or adolescents with chronic pain has on their parents. The Bath Adolescents Pain Questionnaire - Parental Impact Questionnaire (BAP-PIQ) was developed to assess these multidimensional effects by including domains of anxiety, child related catastrophizing, depression, partner relationship, leisure functioning, parental behavior, self-blame and helplessness, and parental strain. The goal of this study was, therefore to translate BAP-PIQ into Icelandic and to evaluate the psychometric properties both of BAP-PIQ and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory-Family Impact module (PedsQL-FIM). Participants were 69 parents (mostly mothers) of adolescents that had been experiencing chronic pain for the previous three months. The parents answered online the BAP-PIQ and PedsQL-FIM as well as the following questionnaires which were used to examine construct validity: The Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS), The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Parent proxy-report (PedsQL) and The Pain Catastrophizing Scale for parents (PCS-P).
