PURPOSE: The study was aimed to analyze the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Apraxia Screen of TULIA (T-AST).
METHODS: A total of 112 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) were included in the study. T-AST tasks were performed once while recording with a video camera. Two physiotherapists scored T-AST, independently. Rater(1) performed a second assessment of apraxia with AST one week later. The disability was evaluated by Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS). Cognitive assessment was carried out with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Depression was evaluated with Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D). Multiple Sclerosis International Quality of Life (MusiQoL) was used to assess the quality of life. In addition, fatigue was evaluated with Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS).
RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 42.3 ± 11.0 years. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the rater(1)'s and rater(2)'s evaluation was 0.820 and 0.800, respectively. ICC score of the intra-rater reliability was 0.960. ICC score of the inter-rater reliability was 0.971. The Spearman correlation coefficients between T-AST and MMSE, EDSS, MusiQoL, HAM-D, FSS were low to excellent, respectively (r = 0.863; p < 0.001, r = -0.768; p < 0.001, r = -0.560; p < 0.001, r = -0.393, p < 0.001, r = -0.324, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSION: The Turkish version of the AST is a reliable and valid tool for assessing upper limb apraxia in patients with MS.Implications for RehabilitationThe Turkish version of the Apraxia Screen of TULIA (T-AST) is a reliable and valid test for assessing apraxia in patients with multiple sclerosis.Considering the short structure, high reliability, and validity, T-AST could be used in clinical practice and clinical trials.
