Our experience in Linguistic Validation

Over the past 7 years we have conducted hundreds of patient-facing and phone assessments on research questionnaires for conditions such as:

Crohn’s Disease

                                    Childhood cancer (80 UK participants)

Alzheimer’s

Ankylosing Spondylitis

Arthritis

Polymyalgia Rheumatica

Breast Cancer

Parkinson’s

Vision impairment (adult and paediatric)

General fatigue (adult and paediatric)

MS

Eczema (adult and paediatric)

Clinical depression

Adult obesity

IBS

                      Asthma, PAH – paediatric pulmonary conditions

In conjunction with our trained interview team of language experts and linguists and a number of specialist clinicians, we have assisted researchers in testing patient-facing questionnaires to establish their validity before they are used in real clinical settings.

To this end, we hope we have in some small way assisted in the development of more successful treatments for many conditions.

We can carry out your Linguistic Validation projects in

Ireland, Northern Ireland and the UK.
