| Abstract | Background The Caries Impacts and Experiences Questionnaire for Children (CARIES-QC) assess children’s effects of dental caries on their quality of life. This study aimed to determine the scale’s Turkish version (CARIES-QC/T) validity and reliability according to age groups and to create the scale that is specific to selected age groups. Methods Children were divided up into 3 age groups (5–7, 8–10 and 11–14 ages). Explanatory factor analysis (EFA) was used in the concept validation process. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used for cross-cultural validity. For each group, test-retest analyses were performed on 20 children. Inter-question correlation and Cronbach’s alpha were used to examine internal consistency. Results A total of 360 children (mean age; 9.04, 56.1% girls,) 120 children in each group, participated in the study. Questions 7 and 12 for the 5–7 age group, Questions 4 and 7 for the 8–10 and 11–14 age groups were excluded from the analysis (according to EFA results; factor loads < 0.30). Three modified CARIES-QC/T scales structures with a total of 10 questions were developed for the age groups of 5–7, 8–10, and 11–14. Conclusions Some questions on the Caries-QC/T scale should be eliminated, it was found when it was evaluated for age specificity. Although the results of the Caries-QC scale studies to be carried out in different societies and age groups vary, the high sample size in this study and the statistically strong results showed that the Caries-QC/T scale forms that we adapted could be used by the specified age groups. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
