          Abstract

          Our study assessed the psychometric properties of the Romanian SarQoL®questionnaire. Normal distribution and high internal consistency were found. Sarcopenic subjects reported a reduced global quality of life compared to non-sarcopenics. The Romanian version of the SarQoL®questionnaire, conceptually and literally equivalent with the source instrument, is qualified in terms of psychometric properties.
