AI-generated Abstract
The study focuses on the cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the Amputation Body Image Scale (ABIS®) and its shortened version (ABIS-R®) for French-speaking patients who have undergone lower limb amputation. It involved the translation and cultural adaptation of the scales according to international guidelines, followed by psychometric evaluation to assess internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity with a sample of 129 patients. Results demonstrated adequate psychometric properties with high internal consistency and acceptable reliability, confirming the utility of the ABIS tools in clinical settings for assessing body image disturbance among amputees.
