  • Ages 10 to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: 30 individuals between the ages of 10-18 diagnosed with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. As a general recommendation, Cohen states that if the d value is less than 0.2, the effect size can be defined as weak, if it is 0.5, it can be defined as medium, and if it is greater than 0.8, it can be defined as strong (Cohen, 1988). The minimum number of samples was calculated with the G*Power 3.1.9 program. Accordingly, the minimum number of samples to be included in the study for an effect size of 0.5, statistical power of 80% and margin of error of 0.05 was calculated as 29.

Who may be able to join

  • Volunteering to participate in the study and obtaining parental consent
  • Being between the ages of 10-18
  • Being diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis
  • Using a scoliosis brace for at least 3 months
  • Being within the normal range in body mass index

Who cannot join

  • Having previously undergone spine surgery, having any mental problems, having non-idiopathic scoliosis and orthopedic disease.

About this study

Official title: Examination of the Relationship Between Body Perception and Self-Esteem Level and Quality of Life in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a three-dimensional, multifactorial disease that becomes more prevalent in adolescents, disrupts the three-dimensional mechanism and posture of the vertebra, causes deterioration in the person's body perception and cosmetic perception, and also causes negative effects on social life and quality of life. Although idiopathic scoliosis is more common during adolescence, its cause is not yet known. It is divided into three subheadings according to the age of onset. These are respectively; It is classified as Juvenile Idiopathic Scoliosis (0-3 years), Infantile Idiopathic Scoliosis (4-10 years), Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (10 years and above). The most common one is Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. Its incidence in girls is 4 times higher than in boys. This study aimed to examine the effects of body image and self-esteem on quality of life in idiopathic adolescent scoliosis patients and to determine whether there is a difference between genders. Additionally, it will be examined what effect the duration of corset use has on these parameters.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Walter Reed Visual Assessment Scale

    Walter Reed Visual Assessment Scale (WRGDS) is an evaluation scale created from visual figures. It was developed by Pineda et al. in 2006, for use in individuals with scoliosis, to measure how a person thinks about the deformity in their own body and how severe it is perceived.

    Measured: at baseline

  2. Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory (CSEI)

    It is a self-assessment scale developed by Stanley Coopersmith in 1967. This test aims to measure the individual's thoughts about himself and his general sense of self-esteem. The form consists of 58 questions and includes 50 self-esteem items and 8 lie items.

    Measured: at baseline

  3. Scoliosis Research Society-22 Quality of Life Questionnaire

    Scoliosis Research Society-22 is a 22-question quality of life scale specific to scoliosis. Developed by the Scoliosis Research Society, it has been translated into different languages and shown to be valid and reliable.

    Measured: at baseline
