چکیده
The objective of this report was to present the referent values of the Serbian KINDL for healthy children and adolescents. The data from 756 children and adolescents and 618 parents were used. The mean values with standard deviations, 95% confidence intervals, and percentiles were calculated for KINDL. Additionally, the differences between genders, children and parents, and the correlations of age with the KINDL scores were given. The mean values of the subscales ranged 59.51 – 76.39 for the children and 68.96 – 79.97 for the parents. The total scores were 76.29 and 79.86, respectfully. Between the male and female subjects, no significant differences were observed. However, the majority of the scores significantly, but inversely, correlated with age. The referent values were given for gender and age.
