Description

This dataset was developed as part of a postgraduate dissertation study conducted to translate, culturally adapt, and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Hindi version of the Anterior Knee Pain Scale (AKPS) in individuals with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS). The study included translation procedures based on internationally accepted guidelines, content validation using the Delphi method, and test–retest reliability assessment. The dataset contains demographic details, AKPS scores, content validity data, and reliability measurements obtained from participants diagnosed with PFPS. Statistical analysis included Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC), Cronbach’s alpha, Standard Error of Measurement (SEM), Minimal Detectable Change (MDC), Coefficient of Variation (CV%), Smallest Worthwhile Change (SWC), and Bland–Altman analysis. The Hindi version of AKPS demonstrated excellent validity, reliability, and internal consistency, suggesting that it is a clinically useful outcome measure for Hindi-speaking individuals with PFPS.
