Abstract

Background and Objective: The aims of this study was to culturally adapt and validate the Persian-version of the MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS SPASTICITY Scale and to present data on its psychometric properties in a sample of Iranian patients with MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.Subjecrs and Methods: After standard forward and backward translations, 92 patients with MS completed the Persian versions of the MSSS-88 and MSQoL-54 in the first visit. With time interval of 2 days after the first visit, 40 patients filled out the MSSS-88 in the second visit. Test-retest RELIABILITY and internal consistency were assessed using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach's α coefficient, respectively. To evaluate construct VALIDITY of MSSS-88 compared to similar concepts of MSQoL-54, the spearman's rank correlation was used.Results: MSSS-88 has a high ICC level. The minimum Cronbach' s alpha level of 0.70 was exceeded by MSSS-88. In terms of construct VALIDITY, most of a priori hypotheses were confirmed.Conclusion: These results demonstrate the the Persian-version of the MSSS-88 is a culturally-adapted, reliable and valid measure in Iranian patients with MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.
