The present study describes the adaptation of the QoL-AGHDA for use in the following four Slavic languages Czech Polish Serbian and Slovakian. Methods The study involved three stages in each language translation cognitive debriefing and validation. The validation stage assessed internal consistency Cronbach s alpha reproducibility test-retest reliability using Spearman s rank correlations convergent and divergent validity Correlations with the NHP and known group validity. Results The QoL-AGHDA was successfully translated into the target languages with minimal problems. Cognitive debriefing interviewees n 15-18 found the measures easy to complete and identified few problems with the content. Internal consistency Czech Republic Poland Serbia and Slovakia and reproducibility Czech Republic Poland Serbia and Slovakia were good in all adaptations. Convergent and divergent validity and known group validity data were not available for Slovakia. The QoL-AGHDA correlated as expected with the NHP scales most relevant to GHD. The QoL-AGHDA was able to distinguish between participants based on a range of variables. Conclusions The QoL-AGHDA was successfully adapted for use in the Czech Republic Poland Serbia and Slovakia. Further validation of the Slovakian version would be beneficial. The addition of these new lanaguage .
