About this trial
This multi-center, nationwide study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Headache Screening Questionnaire (HSQ-TR). The 10-item questionnaire is designed to screen for migraine and tension-type headache in individuals with headache complaints.
Participants presenting with headache will be enrolled. Each participant will first complete the HSQ-TR and then be examined by a neurologist who will provide a diagnosis according to the ICHD-3 beta criteria. The questionnaire results will be compared with the neurologist's diagnoses to assess criterion validity, including sensitivity, specificity, and agreement.

Headache Screening Questionare
Diagnostic testThe Headache Screening Questionnaire (HSQ) is a 10-item tool developed to screen for migraine and tension-type headache (TTH), based on the ICHD-3 beta criteria. Each item reflects a diagnostic criterion for migraine or TTH. Participants complete the HSQ and are also evaluated by a neurologist for diagnosis. A score of 6 or higher suggests "probable migraine" or "probable TTH."
