Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the cross-cultural validity of the Recovery Stress Questionnaire for Athletes (RESTQ-sport) by analysing reliability and validity of a Dutch translation. Two studies were performed to assess test-retest reliability with a one week interval, internal consistency and factor structure, Criterion validity was assessed in the first. study only, with the Profile of Mood States as a criterion measure. The test-relest reliability of the Dutch RESTQ-sport was comparable to measurements with short intervals in the original version. Internal consistency was also comparable to the original version, with higher Cronbach's alphas at The second measurement compared to The first in both studies. Factor analyses confirmed the stress-recovery structure of the Dutch RESTQ-sport. Criterion validity was also supported. Overall, if was concluded that the Dutch RESTQ-sport has reliability and validity similar to the original version, which gives support to the cross-cultural usefulness of The scale. Limitations of The original RESTQ-sport should be kept in mind when using the translation.
