Following considerable international interest in using ASCOT to measure outcomes in social care, we have developed a set of guidelines which set out the process by which ASCOT tools should be translated into languages other than English.
These instructions draw upon internationally recognised guidelines predominately drawn from health and related fields. If you are planning to translate any of the ASCOT tools into a language other than English, please contact the ASCOT team (ascot@kent.ac.uk).
