ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on a tool called the Barriers to Being Active Quiz (BBAQ), which helps identify challenges people face in staying physically active. The goal of this study is to translate the quiz into Turkish and ensure that it works well in that language and culture. By doing this, researchers hope to make the quiz useful for Turkish speakers who want to understand and overcome barriers to being active.

To participate in this study, you need to be at least 18 years old and able to read and write in Turkish. It's important that you do not have any serious health conditions that could limit your ability to be active, such as certain types of arthritis or neurological issues. If you decide to take part, you will be asked to complete the translated quiz, which will help researchers improve the support available for people looking to increase their physical activity levels. The study is not yet recruiting participants, so more information will be available soon.
