Yes, there are several alternatives to Brislin's back-translation method for translating standardized questionnaires in health psychology research. These include forward translation and iterative translation, using a bilingual expert panel, using computer-assisted translation, and using a "translation trainee." Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, and a researcher should carefully consider which method is best suited for their specific research needs.

Thank you sir

Is there a more feasible alternative for Brislin's back-translation in translating standardized questionnaires in health psychology research?

Yes, there are other alternatives to Brislin's back-translation in translating standardized questionnaires in health psychology research. These include: (1) forward-translation, (2) translation by a bilingual expert, (3) adaptation by a bilingual expert, (4) cognitive interviewing, (5) pretesting, and (6) pilot studies. Each of these techniques has its own advantages and disadvantages, and which technique is used will depend on the type of research being conducted and the resources available.

After any kind of back-translation, run a pilot with the scale and test Cronbach alpha and if the score is above .60. it is assumed that the scale sensitive to the population

Yes, this is a reasonable approach to ensure that the scale is accurate and reliable for the population it is intended for. If the Cronbach alpha score is above .60, then it is likely that the scale is measuring what it is intended to measure and can be used in research. However, it's important to note that other criteria should be considered to ensure the validity of the scale, such as content and construct validity. Additionally, it is important to consider the context and population to ensure that the scale is appropriate for the specific group of people being studied.
