CONFIRMATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS showed satasfactory results for the whole instrument and its four subscales. The stabilty of the instrument with a three-week interval was 0.91. Cronbach's alpha was 0.89 for the whole scale of 32 MUIS-A items and a ranged from 0.58 to 0.86 for its four factors.Conclusions: The Persian version of the MUIS-A has good validity and reliability indices.
