Yet, scales for measuring health-related quality of life in stroke typically exclude people with aphasia. They are also primarily available in English. An exception is the 39-item generic version of the Stroke and Aphasia Quality of Life Scale (SAQOL-39g). This scale has been tested with people with aphasia; it has been adapted for use in many countries including Greece. The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Greek SAQOL-39g. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; An interview-based psychometric study was carried out. Participants completed: receptive subtests of the Frenchay Aphasia Screening Test, the Greek SAQOL-39g, the 12-item General Health Questionnaire, the Frenchay Activities Index, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment and the Barthel Index. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; 86 people took part; 26 provided test-retest reliability data. The Greek SAQOL-39g demonstrated excellent acceptability (minimal missing data; no floor\/ceiling effects), test-retest reliability [intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.96 (overall scale), 0.83\u20130.99 (domains)] and internal consistency [Cronbach\u2019s alpha = 0.96 (overall scale), 0.92\u20130.96 (domains)]. There was strong evidence for convergent [r = 0.53\u20130.80 (overall scale), 0.54\u20130.89 (domains)] and discriminant validity [r = 0.52 (overall scale), 0.04\u20130.48 (domains)]. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; The Greek SAQOL-39g is a valid and reliable scale. It is a promising measure for use in stroke and aphasia treatment prioritization, outcome measurement and service evaluation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000340014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,30]],"date-time":"2012-10-30T11:03:54Z","timestamp":1351595034000},"page":"179-186","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Quality of Life after Stroke: Evaluation of the Greek SAQOL-39g"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"64","author":[{"given":"Evangelia Antonia","family":"Efstratiadou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Evripidis Nicolaos","family":"Chelas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Ignatiou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vasiliki","family":"Christaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ilias","family":"Papathanasiou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katerina","family":"Hilari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00422219"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00422214"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00422218"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.0000221815.64093.8c"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F02687030444000651"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F02687030244000725"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2FMLR.0b013e3181ca2647"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.24.8.1178"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.30.10.2131"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.30.7.1362"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.0000081987.46660.ED"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177%2F0269215508101729"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109%2F09638280903071867"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F00007611-195805000-00011"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1600-0447.1991.tb03162.x"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1600-0447.1995.tb09778.x"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.0000162391.27991.9d"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1532-5415.2005.53221.x"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F096382899297855"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1600-0404.1998.tb07289.x"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378%2Fchest.122.3.920"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161%2F01.STR.31.12.2995"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00900948"},{"key":"ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109%2F09638288.2010.508829"},{"key":"ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055%2Fs-2008-1064009"},{"key":"ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F02687030500532786"},{"key":"ref27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F02687030903438532"},{"key":"ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.apmr.2010.08.026"},{"key":"ref29","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080%2F13682820802008820"}],"container-title":["Folia Phoniatrica et Logopaedica"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/340014","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/340014","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T18:34:28Z","timestamp":1745433268000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000340014"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012]]},"references-count":29,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,25]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000340014","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1021-7762","1421-9972"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1021-7762","type":"print"},{"value":"1421-9972","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012]]}}}
