Objectivesto assess the evidence of reliability and convergent construct validity of the King's Parkinson's Disease Pain Questionnaire.Methodspsychometric study of 75 older adults with Parkinson's disease. The instrument was applied by two researchers separately and reapplied by one researcher 15 days later. In terms of reliability, internal consistency was assessed using the Cronbach's alpha test and stability using the intraclass correlation coefficient. Scores of the King's Parkinson's Disease Pain Questionnaire were compared to those of the Geriatric Pain Measure in the assessment of construct validity.Resultsthe mean Cronbach's alpha obtained between the three assessments was above 0.60, the intraclass correlation between the three assessments was above 0.90, and there was a weak but significant correlation between the two applied scales.Conclusionsthe instrument showed adequate evidence of convergent construct validity and reliability, and can be used in clinical practice.
