| Summary: | <b>Aim:</b> This study, the Turkish version of the STROBE-VET was
made to strengthen the reporting of observational studies in the
veterinary field and making the usage of the STROBE-VET better
understood by the researchers.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> STROBE-VET criteria have been translated
into Turkish by 4 researchers (TB, FG, ES, MAT), each independent
from the other. The translation was finalized with the
collection of the group. Then, an expert translator was reversed
and its compliance with the criteria was evaluated. Secondly, in
order to assess the Turkish control list whether it is understood
correctly by the researchers, 20 studies in the field of veterinary
sciences have been evaluated by two veterinarians (DÖ and
MBÇ). The correspondence between the responses of the researchers
was examined using the percentage of compliance between
researchers for each criterion. In addition, it was assessed
using the Bland-Altman Method and the Intraclass Correlation
Coefficient (ICC) using the total number of reported criteria.<p>
<b>Results: </b>According to results, criteria has a great variation in
the frequency of reporting in the studies. ICC values ranged
from 0.351 to 0.890.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> The Turkish version of STROBE-VET will be a guide
for the referees and editors of journals as well as researchers
studying in the field of veterinary science. |
