520 # # |a The impact of Early Childhood Caries (ECC) and its treatment on the quality of life (QoL) of family members (especially the parents) has not been explored comprehensively. ECC is highly prevalent in NZ and especially in Malaysia, and the study offers an unprecedented opportunity to study the impact of the disease on children and their families in two quite distinct cultures and settings. The Likert response format is the most frequently used method in QoL studies because it is easy to complete and has a minimal burden for respondents. However, the meaning of words in the response options may remain somewhat unclear. Inexact and ill-defined words might confused respondents, and the validity of the data collected could be affected. This study intended to explore definitive meaning of response options in the two scales (short-form P-CPQ and FIS) used in the study.
