The most important reason to treat people well is not what you'll get in return. It's who you hope to become. Kindness is not about reciprocity or karma. It's about character. Civility doesn't need to be justified with consequences. Respecting others is the right thing to do.

Lastly, we conducted a think-aloud exercise with 10 adolescents. The exercise focused on testing the different items (questions) in terms of face validity and usability (See more in visual). Two individuals under 10 years of age were recruited to ensure good readability.

Our results suggest that the item-bank is acceptable and meaningful to use for further validation in larger studies. Hence, we are now ready to continue refining the item bank in order to fully develop a new PROM for adolescents with AKP.

Please feel free to reach out or share this study if you are interested in the area or are planning on conducting any clinical studies in the future related to this population and wants to help out developing a new PROM. It is highly needed! 👏

If research managers don't focus more on promoting 'kind' research practices, they will find it harder to recruit talented researchers, says professor Thomas Bandholm. He and Julie Midtgaard Michael Rathleff are behind a new 'kindness in research' initiative: uniavisen.dk/en/new-initiat…
