The Micheli Functional Scale's Validity and Reliability

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to assess the reliability and validity of the Micheli Functional Scale in the Turkish context.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The study will include a minimum of 80 individuals who are 16 years old or above, have been engaged in the same sports activity for at least two years, participate in physically demanding activities for at least three days a week, and possess the ability to read and write Turkish. Before participating in the study, athletes will be required to sign an informed consent form. Their demographic information will then be recorded.Before conducting the test, we will gather information about the athletes' history of low back pain using the extended Nordic musculoskeletal questionnaire. We will also use this questionnaire to identify any other musculoskeletal issues that the person may have.Two Turkish translators, fluent in English, will independently translate the original Micheli Functional Scale into Turkish. They will then discuss their translations and create a common one. The resulting translation will be translated back into English by two native English speakers who are also proficient in Turkish. These translations will be reviewed and combined into a single version. A Turkish scientist will evaluate the questionnaire for its suitability in the Turkish language. The final version will be tested on a small pilot group to determine its comprehensibility. After this, the questionnaire will be administered to the entire study group. To assess the validity of the Micheli Functional Scale, we will use the Oswestry Functional Questionnaire and the Ronald Morris Disability Questionnaire. One week after the test, we will repeat these surveys.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Micheli Functional Scale | Evaluates the function linked to low back pain in athletes. | baseline and 1 week later | 
| Oswestry Disability Index | Evaluate disability due to low back pain. the index measures perceived low back pain related dysfunction. Whether the total score increaeses, the dyscfunction increases. | baseline and 1 week later | 
| Roland morris disability questionnaire | It is a questionnaire used to evaluate the disability level of individuals with low back pain. This questionnaire, consisting of 24 items, questions the person's social life, walking, sitting, standing, getting up from a chair, climbing stairs, dressing, personal care, pain, appetite, sleep, and psychological impact. The person answers the questions with yes and no. Yes is scored as 1 point and no as 0 points. The maximum score is 24 and the minimum score is 0. As the total score increases, the level of physical exposure also increases. | baseline and 1 week later | 

Secondary Outcome Measures
