Abstract

The article presents a study on patients with sciatica and disc herniation. The study aims to describe the process of Norwegian versions of the Maine-Seattle Back Questionnaire, and the Sciatica Bothersomeness and Frequency Indices. An assessment of reliability by internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and measurement error, as well as the construct validity and responsiveness is offered. The author concludes that the Norwegian versions were administered with acceptable assessments.
