    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To establish the Chinese version of the modified children's fear survey schedule-dental subscale (CFSS-DS). METHODS: The original English version of CFSS-DS with facial image scale (FIS) was translated into Chinese, pre-tested and cross-culturally adapted. Subsequently the Chinese version schedule was randomly investigated among 367 children aged 5 - 12 years and their parents. Reliability and validity of the translated scale was evaluated later. RESULTS: Totally 367 children were investigated and 311 valid questionnaire was received. Cronbach's alpha of the translated scale was 0.85 and test-rest reliability was 0.73. The 15 items were divided into four domains. There was a certain logical relationship between the items among the same domains. There was highly significant association between the self-report of the Modified CFSS-DS and Frankl Behavioral Scale (r(s) = -0.403, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The Chinese version of modified CFSS-DS has been established successfully with good psychometric properties which provide the theoretical evidence for further application in Chinese population.
