To translate and culturally adapt the Diabetes Quality of Life Brief Clinical Inventory (DQoL-BCI) into Turkish and assess the psychometric properties of the translated version. A forward–backward translation process was conducted in conformity with international guidelines. A total of 150 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) completed the Turkish version of DQoL-BCI (DQoL-BCI-Tr). The factor structure, test–retest reliability, and construct validity were evaluated. In the DQoL-BCI-Tr, the three-factor structure was found optimal and explained 68.7% of the variance. The DQoL-BCI-Tr showed excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.90) and test–retest reliability (ICC = 0.98). Cronbach's alpha values ranged from 0.85 to 0.91 for subscales (satisfaction, worry, impact). A negative correlation was found between the total scores of the DQoL-BCI-Tr and the EuroQoL-5 dimensions (EQ-5D) indexes (r= −0.22, p < 0.01). The DQoL-BCI-Tr total score and satisfaction and worry subscale scores differentiated between groups defined by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c>9%) and the use of insulin. The study results showed that the DQoL-BCI-Tr can be served as a reliable and valid instrument to obtain information from Turkish patients with T2DM diagnosis, including satisfaction with treatment, the impact of the disease, and worry about the social/vocational issues. The Turkish version of the Diabetes Quality of Life Brief Clinical Inventory (DQoL-BCI) is a valid and reliable instrument. The DQoL-BCI Questionnaire in Turkish (DQoL-BCI-Tr) is an easy and quick way to determine satisfaction with treatment, impact of disease, and worry about the social/vocational issues. The DQoL-BCI-Tr is a reliable instrument for assessing disease-specific effects, emotional loads, and satisfaction of Turkish patients with type 2 diabetes in clinical and research settings.
