Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Body Perception Questionnaire.

<h4>Background/objective</h4>The purpose of this study was to cross-culturally adapt the Body Perception Questionnaire Short Form (BPQ-SF) into Italian and to assess its psychometric properties in a sample of Italian subjects.<h4>Methods</h4>A forward-backward method was used...
