The aim of this study is to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Temperature Sensitivity Scale in individuals with Parkinson's disease. This cross-sectional methodological study will evaluate the psychometric properties of the scale, including internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity, in order to provide a valid and reliable tool for assessing temperature sensitivity in Turkish-speaking individuals with Parkinson's disease.

| Temperature Sensitivity Scale Total Score | Temperature sensitivity will be assessed using the Turkish version of the Temperature Sensitivity Scale in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The scale is designed to evaluate temperature sensitivity-related symptoms and their impact on daily life. Psychometric properties including internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity will be analyzed. Higher scores indicate greater temperature sensitivity-related problems. | Baseline (at the time of questionnaire administration) |

| Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39) Total and Subscale Scores | Quality of life will be assessed using the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39), a validated self-report measure specific to Parkinson's disease. The questionnaire consists of 39 items across 8 domains, including mobility, activities of daily living, emotional well-being, stigma, social support, cognition, communication, and bodily discomfort. Scores can be transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating worse quality of life. PDQ-39 scores will be used to evaluate the construct validity of the Turkish version of the Temperature Sensitivity Scale. |
