Reliability and Validity

BRIEF SUMMARY A. "What is the purpose of this study?" This study will test whether the "AI City Hall Project" (QAIAx), a quantum artificial intelligence (AI) public health agency, can provide free or low-cost behavioral and mental health services inside self-contained, dome-enclosed communities called "Microcities". Researchers want to see if AI-managed public administration, AI humanoid robots, holoportation of human-figures via 'holo-suites' (e.g., AI-119 Kikkeri Holo-Suit; AI-119 Vulcan QM-Ware) and advanced AI mental-health tools can lower housing and care costs, improve mental health outcomes (e.g., particular ecosystems using AI tools among persons with one or more addiction disorders), and be financially sustainable for people on fixed incomes or public assistance. B. "What conditions does the study focus on?" The study focuses on adults with: * Autism spectrum disorders (Asperger's, autism, ADHD, ASD) * Substance use disorders (alcohol, opioids, marijuana, cocaine, MDMA/ecstasy, tobacco/nicotine) * Psychiatric conditions (personality disorders, narcissism, gender dysphoria, eating disorders) * Behavioral addictions (gambling, sex addiction) and related issues (sex offence history). C. "What does the study involve?" Eligible volunteers live in an omni AI-managed Microcity for up to 24 months. The community is housed in a geodesic dome that contains all daily necessities: housing, food, utilities, healthcare, and public services. Daily life is managed by an AI system (ISAC) and AI humanoid robots, with only occasional human oversight. Participants receive free mental-health treatment that may include AI-driven counselling, virtual-reality therapy (holo-suits), and non-invasive digital "attitude inoculation" protocols designed to reduce stress and addiction cravings. All participants also take AI-technology courses as a condition of enrolment. The study does not use any FDA-regulated drug, device, or biologic. \*\*Who can participate?\*\* You may be able to join if you: * Are an adult (18 years or older) * Have a diagnosis of one of the listed mental-health or addiction disorders * Are referred by a licensed health professional (e.g., RN, NP, PhD, MD), a non-profit organisation (e.g., 501(c)(3), university, church), or a public agency (e.g., case manager, social worker, parole/probation officer, judge) * Are willing to live in a closed, AI-managed community for up to one year and complete AI educational courses. Participants who are veterans, receive public assistance (e.g., VA disability, SSDI/SSI, Medicaid, Medicare), or are experiencing homelessness may be prioritised. \*\*Where is the study taking place?\*\* The study will be conducted at Microcity sites in the United States and internationally. The first administrative site is in Richmond, Virginia, USA. Additional sites are planned in partner nations, including tribal lands, military installations, and special economic zones. \*\*Who is sponsoring the study?\*\* The study is sponsored by \*\*Veterans Recovery Network Inc.\*\*, a non-profit organization, in collaboration with \*\*AI-119 Vulcan Project Research \& Educational Technology Co. (PRETCO)\*\* and an AI legal agency. The study is conducted under U.S. federal research and development authorities (28 U.S.C. §1498; 10 U.S.C. §129a) and is part of a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). This summary describes a planned clinical study. Not all details may be final. Information may change as the study progresses.

The aim of our study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the 2-minute step test in hemophilia patients, assess its intra-rater and inter-rater reliability, and evaluate its convergent validity and construct validity supported by measurements of gait, balance, and functionality.

The purpose of this study is to develop the Turkish version of the CTS-6 Evaluation Tool and to comprehensively assess its validity and reliability in the Turkish population. The CTS-6 Evaluation Tool is a widely used and reliable instrument for the assessment of diagnosis and symptom severity in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. In this study, the CTS-6 will undergo translation and cultural adaptation to ensure linguistic and cultural appropriateness for the Turkish population. The goal is to produce a valid, reliable, and practical tool that can be used efficiently in clinical settings. The adapted version is intended to be applicable across multiple medical specialties involved in the diagnosis and management of carpal tunnel syndrome in Turkey. The results are expected to provide a trustworthy Turkish version of the CTS-6 suitable for both clinical practice and research purposes.

Translating batteries with good psychometric properties into Turkish will increase the number of assessment batteries we can use in our language for clinical and academic studies. Therefore, the aim of our study was to verify the validity, reliability, and translation into Turkish of the Hypertonus Assessment Tool for children with motor disorders.

This study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of gait and jumping parameters measured with the iSen device in healthy adults. Gait analysis is a valuable tool for assessing general health, cognitive performance, quality of life, and mortality. It is commonly used by clinicians to assess functional limitations resulting from neurological or orthopedic conditions and to guide treatment plans. Traditional gait assessments primarily focus on walking speed, but additional parameters such as step length, step time, and gait symmetry are crucial for a comprehensive analysis. The study will also assess vertical jump performance, which is a surrogate measure of explosive lower limb strength and is commonly used in sports performance and injury prediction. The iSen device, a wearable and affordable sensor, will be compared to the validated BTS G-Walk system to evaluate the accuracy and consistency of its measurements. Participants aged 18-35 with no history of musculoskeletal, neurological, or systemic conditions will be included. The study will be conducted at Gazi University and Kırıkkale University, where participants will undergo assessments of gait and jump performance using both iSen and BTS G-Walk devices. A test-retest reliability protocol will be employed with a seven-day interval between measurements. The results will provide evidence on the suitability of the iSen device for reliable and valid gait and jump measurements in clinical settings

This study aims to establish a novel multimodal evaluation and precision rehabilitation system for patients with congenital hearing loss who have received hearing aids, cochlear implantation, or emerging gene therapy. The proposed system will integrate age-stratified difficulty levels, combined with a gamified interaction platform or software designed to assess and train three core perceptual domains: auditory speech perception, music perception, and spatial hearing capabilities.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the translation, cross-cultural fit, and psychometric properties of the ICU-specific pressure injury risk scale
