| Abstract | The psychosocial impact of dental aesthetics questionnaire (PIDAQ) could reflect dental aesthetic degrees evaluated by traditional dental aesthetic indices. However, no Chinese version of PIDAQ has been used. The aim of this study was to translate the original English version of PIDAQ into Chinese and to assess the validity and reliability of the Chinese version for application in Chinese young adults. The questionnaire was translated into Chinese, back translated, pre-tested, and cross-culturally adapted. Subsequently, the Chinese version of PIDAQ along with two other scales, the aesthetic component of Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need and the Perception of Occlusion Scale, were administered to 436 young adults from the city of Guangzhou, China. Two hundred and twenty-five of them perceived 'have demand' for orthodontics and 221 perceived 'no demand'. Cronbach's alpha of the translated PIDAQ was 0.94, corrected item-total correlation ranged from 0.39 to 0.81. The 23 items of PIDAQ were divided into three domains. There was a logical relation between the items in the same domain and a highly significant association between scores of PIDAQ and the two other scales. The 'have demand' group scored significantly higher than the 'no demand' group using PIDAQ (P < 0.01). The translated Chinese version of PIDAQ demonstrated good reliability, validity, and responsiveness. Its sufficient discriminative and evaluative psychometric properties provide the theoretical evidence for further use in study on orthodontic-specific aspects of quality of life among Chinese young adults. |

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.
