Globus pharyngeus or sensation may be defined as a feeling of something a lump in the throat without dysphagia. The study will assess the construct validity and reliability of the Turkish version of Laryngopharyngeal Measure of Perceived Sensation (T-LUMP) Questionnaire. The investigators developed the Turkish version of this questionnaire (T-LUMP), according to the cross-cultural adaptation guidelines. Two translators translated the LUMP into Turkish and a native English language speaker reverse-translated it into English. The back translation was sent to the original author for proofreading. The final version of the LUMP questionnaire consisted of 8 basic and understandable questions related with globus pharyngeus symptoms.
Purpose of the study is the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Laryngopharyngeal Measure of Perceived Sensation (T-LUMP) Questionnaire, so that it would be used as an assessment tool for Turkish globus pharyngeus patients.
