Brief summary: Patient-reported joint motion assessment tools have been developed and applied successfully in several joints of the body. "The Self Administered Neck Mobility Assessment Tool (S-ROM-Neck)" questionnaire was developed by Langenfeld et al in 2018. With this questionnaire, the clinicians are able to evaluate the neck joint motion perception of the patients, subjectively. There is no Turkish version of the questionnaire. The aim of our study is to develop the Turkish version of the S-ROM-Neck questionnaire, to analyze its cultural adaptation, and to reveal its validity and reliability.

Detailed description: Neck pain leads to a decreased range of motion in the cervical spine, bringing along functional losses. As a result, this situation is associated with many disabilities. Evaluation of neck joint motion is essential in patients with chronic neck pain. It is used to evaluate the neck pain level and functional deficit level of the patient. In this way, it is possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment applied to the patient during the rehabilitation process. Generally, this evaluation can be made and interpreted by an experienced clinician. However, patient perception provides a better understanding of patients' needs and problems by converting clinical data into a patient-centered measure. Moreover, the patient's perspective can add valuable information to the examination by creating a holistic picture of the patient's problems, possible needs, and expectations. In 2018, the "Self Administered Neck Mobility Assessment Tool (S-ROM-Neck)" survey was developed by Langenfeld et al. With this questionnaire, developers purposed to evaluate the neck joint motion perception of the patients, subjectively. There is no Turkish version of the questionnaire. The aim of our study is to develop the Turkish version of the S-ROM-Neck questionnaire, to analyze its cultural adaptation, and to reveal its validity and reliability.
