Department of Psychiatry residents working with Dr. Martin Provencher at Université Laval recently presented on the French validation of the QoL.BD. Dr. Provencher’s team is in the process of writing about the cross-cultural adaptations of mental health measurements, in particular the QoL.BD scale. The paper version of the QoL.BD was translated into French in 2014 by a team including a CREST.BD researcher (Dr. Provencher), professional translators, two peers in Montreal with lived experience of BD, and a CREST.BD trainee (Dr. Laurent Coque) from Paris.

Dr. Provencher’s team at Université Laval produced a poster summary of their paper, which you can read here in French.
